Fold, I doubt he is doing this with 55-77 which is all your beating.

i would not have bet so much. there is not much he will call with that you beat; all you want from your cbet is for him to fold over pairs. no reason to make a large cbet. bet 15, then fold to a raise.

With a 3.4 AF, I think he's making a move against your c-bet. I doubt he limps 99 or better, so I put him on 77 or less, a couple big cards, or perhaps a flush draw. I push here. If he has 2 or 44, Merry Christmas.

I actually agree with this, but it's a high variance play for sure. I don't hate a fold if you are trying to aviod the big V.
