And fold to a raise?

As I mentioned in my follow-up, I think this player is somewhat likely to 3-bet both with a better hand and a semi-bluff (hoping I lay down my overpair) and I am certain I want to show this hand down rather than get 3-bet on the turn and backed into a corner with a tough decision.

I felt raise, it almost seemed standard...but I felt that the other player also knows that I know its standard and was betting in hopes that I'd raise. Perhaps I was in too many levels of thinking here (which I feel this player is capable of)...but it didn't seem so cut-and-dry as raise the turn every time.

I know you are a smart cookie, so can you throw some of your logic my way so I can understand if this isn't just a cut-and-dry SOP play in your mind?

Thanks JT.
