Re: Standard?
I think that's a pretty bad fold. I like check/call, because he might check through some better hands, like T8 or something.
He could peel a ton of hands on the turn, and just because he bets the river after you show weakness doesn't mean that he was calling with a better hand.

Re: Standard?
in this instance I dont mind a fold, however i think there are some things worth noting. first off, i dont buy into the 'UTG thinks and calls'. To me, that doesn't mean anything. Is he thinking or pissing? thinking or playing 3 other tables? just because he waits doesn't always mean he's thinking i dont think.
I think it's OK to fold here, however, because we have such a weak middle pair. Would UTG have limped a higher PP (99 or TT?). I really dont think he's betting a 5 or a 3 on the end here, and if he has an 8 it's most likely with a better kicker than our 7. This leaves me with one possible situation. UTG has some sort of unsuited broadway mess...QT, K9, etc. and got a free turn card. another ace hit so he figured the chances of you having an ace you checked around on the flop isn't great and figures to have 6 outs against you (if he was a thinking player we might see a bluff raise here). when you check the river it's you saying you dont have an Ace and he's going to bluff you off the pot, since he didnt hit anything and can only beat a worse UI hand can easily fold to a river c/r FWIW, i bet you take down this pot with a river bet. C'mon, would an Ace really check the flop (ok... missed c/r maybe) and also check the turn when he hits trips (and only call?). Is this a standard why of luring you in? I feel like he's not getting the most $ if he is playing an ace this way.

Re: Standard?
If this line is wrong, it's barely wrong. Loose and bad players don't like to risk being check-raised on a scary board, and sure as heck don't value-bet 66 or 77 here. So it's either a bluff or an A. Unless you have an extremely weak table image (i.e. continually betting and check-folding), this is not a bluff 11% of the time.
