How do you play this?

Just stick it in there.

In terms of PP the chances he has 77-JJ easily outweigh the times he has AA or KK. Likewise the chances of him having a flush draw, straight draw or combo draw easily outweight the times he has trip 6s.

Youre ahead a good 75% of the time id say. If he calls you (which is very likely) you wont win 75% of the time though due to the draws, probably more like 60% but its still +EV. And he will occasionally fold to the all in of course which is an automatic win.

If he has got you beat so be it theres nothing you can really do.

Yeah, get it in. Nothing else to add to Muze's post.

shove

Ok, I did shove, and he had AQs, and my hand held up. Wasn't too happy with my play at the time, but seems everyone agrees with it.
