Tough decision.
A line from a Clint Eastwood movie flickered into my consciousness, something like, "You've got to ask yourself one question. Do you feel lucky? Well, do ya...?" Clint says this line while he has a 44 magnum pointed at the perp's head.
You could be a little bit ahead or way the heck behind.
My guess is Villain possibly has the one way nuts. Hard to say what that is exactly. Could only be 99**, a hand that might well be behind Hero's hand.
If you hadn't written "villain is competent," it would be a tougher decision. But since you wrote that, although there are meta game considerations, and although he could be putting a move on you, for this one time only, I'd be inclined to get out of Villain's way.
Fold.
