If its heads up I can see the pros and cons for calling and folding. I came down on the side of folding for the following reasons.

1 - There would be 7SBs in the pot so you are getting 7:2 odds.

2 - If you managed to get a 7 on the flop you would probably call a bet on each street so now the odds are close to even money. Even on a 7 high board you could be beat by 88 upwards.

In Summary the risks are to high in relation to the rewards.

Multi Pot

You have much better odds 38:2 or 19:1 You would need to hit the flop very hard to win, whether the pot odds justify it I'm not sure.

If it was suited and was multiway I'd call everytime.
Poker is all about the long long long long long long long term . . .
