I prefer to fold. I don't know the figures, so I could be wrong but I look at it like this:

1/ I doubt 99 is better than a flip against reraiser, and definitely don't think I'm favourite against both, and both will likely just call.
2/ There is at least some chance that they will knock each other out.

On the other hand, you're very short and won't have much FE in the SB or on the button. So I don't know that it can be terrible to get it in here.

Pushing your next random hand wihth a little bit of FE (but not much) may be better than getting 99 in here vs two opponents who may have a willingness to cooperate (and could already have you drawing pretty slim) ... I think letting them get involved with eachother, at least taking the gamble that they do, might be best here.

Also how does everyone reply to all of the other threads and then completely ignore the threads that could fuel some real discussion like this one

scotty : we were waiting for you.

As said chances are that you will facing 2 opponents, one of them having probably an overpair or racing against 3-4 overcards.

I don't like your chances. Fold.

3-4 overcards makes it rediculously hard for a pair to win. Also, HUGE (maybe 90%) chance they get it arrrrrrrrin with each other, so i think this is easily a fold. I also put the raiser on a very strong range usually.
