it's just too likely that your opponent hit this board for a flop bet to take it down. i used to do this too much and it is a complete chip sprew. 3 connected cards in the playing zone is not a good flop to bluff. you have position, you have a gutshot and an ace might give you the best hand. take your free turn unless you reconize the player as being extremely tight.
this is a 10+1, he'll call you with 77 and then you'll puke.

your reasoning is sound, but i disagree in this particular case. since this is a 10+1, he could have called preflop with any two suited cards, or a smaller pair he may fold to a board with 3 overs, or he could have called with any two. heads up, with position, small pot - you've got to take a shot at winning that pot here.
