Some advice on whether this was the right move or not

[psychosi]

Hi there been signed up on PL since May but never actually contributed so thought i'd post something. Anyway playing in a $5 STT on VC and got abused for 10 minutes after making this play so thought i'd get a general opinion on this. 6 players left, i'm chip leader on just over 3000 chips, think it was about 3500 but was something like that. I'm in the big blind for 200 and the guy in 1st position goes all-in for 690. Gets folded round to me holding 9 2 off suit. 490 to call, 990 in the pot giving me pot odds of 2:1 right?? Therefore unless i put him on an overpair i'm getting about the correct odds to call? If i'm wrong here please say so as i'm not totally at ease with odds etc. Therefore given he's short stacked and desperate i dont put him on a pair and call. Hit my 9 on the flop and it holds up, then for the next 10 minutes he's abusing me in the chat box. I dont like putting my money in with such bad hands as 9 2os but given the odds and the chance so knock someone out thought it was a fair decision. Any advice on this would be great.
