it's sooo distrustful in BVB spots. I think that it's at least on the bottom of our stacking off range. I'd probably shove over vs this donk and feel happy about it considering that it's a drawy heavy board. Anyway, I rarely give anybody credit for a monster hand in sb vs bb war barring some uber FR nits.

 i think that you have to call, but most rivers suck for him as well as you. Don't fold. You will rarely face a river bet.

Raising is tempting cos he isn't folding any. I dunno, thinking about it more and his line doesn't make much sense unless the 7 improved his hand. Does he play JQ like this ever? Maybe J9/JT I guess, that and a lot of two pair hands and straights.
you know i can't read your ghost sig bro, i've been internalising a really complicated situation in my head
allin, reload, repeat

 basically you have a bluffcatcher, but with this kind of action it is very possible that his line of thinking is something like "I think my Jx is the best hand here, I raise!" or "Lol trapped you with my AA, I raise!"
Non-retarded players generally don't open limp the sb vs an unknown.

It is very rare that someone will wait for the turn to c/r a flushdraw, but it happens.
I think your hand is easily strong enough to make this a +EV call... if he pots or overbets the river I might find a fold, but I'd call the river most of the time.

 its call/call or call/fold

I hate shoving.

I would probably call and muck most rivers honestly.
