Let's say it's your very first hand at a table. It is still your (or at leat my) job to maximize your expectation on that hand.

Generally, giving people respect until they show you they don't deserve it is going to be the right move. If they're bad, you're going to have plenty of shots at their money. If they're good, you're much better off folding.
I really doubt it's going to be optimal to commit a large amount of money to a marginal hand against an unknown opponent who is showing a lot of strength. You can probably invent a population of players that make it optimal, but even the 3/6 stud/8 population is going to be better than that.
