Game is $1/$3 NL with button straddle at Harrah's in New Orleans. Game is great, with mostly rec players, one really good pro, and lots of drinking and gambling. Hero has been playing for a few hours, only shown down one hand GII on a JcTh4s2s board with JdTd vs KcJs vs a preflop raiser.
Villain seems to be a mid-30's rec, has been drinking all night but is lucid. Has been active but not incredibly out of line bluffing. Villain starts the hand with $425, Hero covers ($750). OTTH:
Hero raises straddle pot from EP to $25 with Q
Q
(this might seem high, but was the std table raise in these pots), Villain calls from CO, everyone else folds.

Hero leads for $35 and villain quickly raises to $95. Seems strange V would raise a set on such a dry board, but can't totally rule it out. Folding seems really weak, but 3! also seems bad as V will shove with hands that crush us and likely fold all hands we crush. Anyone disagree? Anyway, I decided call/check turn/re-eval was best of not any real good choices. Thoughts?
Turn ($250)

Hero checks. Villain thinks for maybe 10 seconds and bets $100. Hero?
Thoughts everywhere are welcome as I am just coming back to NL after two years and am very rusty.
Thanks,
