Raise-shoving straight draw on the turn Raise-shoving straight draw on the turn

Hi guys, I would like to hear your opinion on this hand I played at NL4 6-max.

Hero is in the hijack with 100bbs and has 1010. He opens the action with a 3x raise to $0.12. Villain, whom we have no information on yet, raises to $0.20 in the cutoff. Since players on 4NL tend to make the minraise with AA and KK to 'trap', I decided to just call, planning to navigate postflop.

The flop comes 928 rainbow, Hero checks and Villain bets about $0.45 which is pot size. I call, suspecting to be beat a big amount of the time but thinking it would be too exploitable to fold an overpair on this board.

Then the turn comes a 7, which gives me an open ended straight draw. I check, Villain bets about $1.40 so basically pot again. Now I feel like I certainly can't fold, and considering my equity and possible fold equity, I shove. In the end I doubt if this was the right play since I feel like he's almost never folding there, and almost always has QQ+. Do you guys think calling is a better play, or maybe even folding? I'd like to hear your opinion

ps. I did end up winning the hand he had KK and the river came a 6

Always calling here unless we have some crazy stats/ reads.

I play on Ignition. Min-raises are usually button clicking spew there. I think they are beginners who were taught raising is better than calling, but they don't know anything about bet-sizing or which hands they should raise.

I'd just call the turn again. AA-QQ will fold to a jam sometimes, but our hand is still plenty good enough to just call again with our equity+showdown value. Folding river to a triple barrel unimproved.

Calling seems like the best line in this spot
