To LAG or not to LAG...
You have position and one of those hands that are perfect to hit big and knock out an overpair - a suited connector, like JT or T9. The villain who raised is the type who cannot make a big laydown with big pocket pair.
You're pretty sure you're really behind but you call a standard raise anyway because if you do flop that monster, you feel that villain can't make the laydown so you'll get paid off and if you miss on the flop you can escape with a relatively small hit (in $.50/1.00, you're out $3-5).
Positive or negative EV?
