Default What would jesus do?

Im starting my online poker career and its frustrating to say the least. My question has to do with a recent hand I played in a $5, 27 person sit n go. I was pretty card dead but I managed to get to the final table. I was in BB with blinds 300/600 and 1.6k chips. The big stack raised me and SB(with like 300 chips) all in. He was min raising preflop with his best hands so I put him on a small/medium pair. I had KJ the SB insta called with basically no chips and I was faced with my decision. What made it difficult was that it was the final table with 7 people left(pays out 5). My question is what would you do here? Would to take the coin flip to almost triple up or fold and hope for a better situation? Thanks in advance.

If I'm reading this correctly you have 1600 chips and 600 already posted in the bb.

No way you can fold here, get it and pray so you can earn some chips to make a real run at the win.

Thank you Karl I was most interesting in what Jesus would do not really any two plus two'ers.

Simple. Jesus would shove and make the flop come K-K-K and then have the turn and river both be jacks just for fun.

Jesus wouldn't do anything because Jesus doesn't gamble.

Unless of course, Jesus was using this:

Don't sin without it!

With an M lower than 2, and the odds, you have to call. Push and hope to have two live cards. Hopefully you can more than double up and be back in the game. You play for first, not to just make the money.

I play Jesus every second wednesday of the month.
He's a donk.
He normally runs about 90/5/0.5 but he's mentioned on several occasions that he doesn't like KJ because the idea of 'jack-king off' offends his religious sensibilities. IMO He would probably fold.
