I don't take the same line on the flop.

I would be willing to do a CB, but why do a CB that big. If you get raised or called you are in trouble and he may do it with a lot of hands that you beat and that beat you, so there's no way you will get more info.

I would do a check-raise all-in if you think he may fold depending on your reads, or I would do a 12k bet closer to have the pot).

17k is not bad, but I would be pretty much done with the hand...You already invested a lot on an average hand against a CL. Don't mess with them unless you have a really good hand.
