Default Re: How about THIS for a Re-Steal?

i think that villain will rarely make that play without an 8 or 9, and i think it's unclear whether he'll fold a 8. i think bet-fold is the best line here.

On small-middling paired boards, I'm not sure how much respect leading out gets. I think you're probably right that you're rarely getting raised here when you're ahead, but I also think that this bet has less chances of moving your opponent than usual. I might prefer a line like check-calling and leading blank looking turns or check-raising a moderate amount on the flop. I'm curious what other people's opinions on this are.

EDIT: I'm an idiot and should pay more attention to the action; I didn't see that we were second to act after the flop. I guess my question still stands if you reverse the positions. I might check behind here.
