Default Folding JJ HU in a big pot on an unscary board for 1 bet?

Party 15, 10 handed

I open raise JJ from middle position, button 3bets, sb calls, BB folds.

Flop: 9h 2d 2c

SB checks, I check, button bets, SB raises, I 3bet, button calls, sb calls.

Turn: 3h

SB checks, I bet, button raises, small blind folds. Your play. If you would have done something different before this point go ahead and say so, but I think you're wrong. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Just call down. If he has AA/KK/99, then so be it. The pot is big, you have an overpair, this is Party, so I don't see how you can fold.

He called two cold and then raised me when a (near) blank hit the turn. If I call down it feels like I'm doing it on random berzerko factor only. Theres no way he can actually think a hand that I beat is ahead and the only hand I can imagine making a play here is AhKh, which has 14 or 15 outs against me (i forget if i held a heart).
In a related story, I called down.

Yeah, I wouldn't feel so good about my JJ at this point but you're going to see TT and overcards here a surprising amount of the time on PartyPoker.

Call down. Heads up you are not going to be paying more than 2 BB.

I would be guessing a pair of 9s or Aces though. Possibly Kings but button should have otherwise been scared of trips, aces, nines and SB holding an unlikely 2.

Medium pairs, TT, AK, any 2 hearts higher than a 9.

You're good more than 1 in 6 times here, you have to call.

I would bet the flop hoping the button raises (preferably with AK/TT) and knocks out the SB. It would a coup to knock out a hand like AQ/KQ etc.

7:1 effective for a calldown. if he has AA/KK/QQ/99 then so be it. if this was live i could see a fold b/c you can't improve (12:1 immediate odds) correctly but this is party and the pot is burgeoning so gulp, click, click.

but in reality you're against AA or 99. button cold called those 2 $15 bets from you're check 3bet AND then raised the turn. he wants you to reraise...
