You can fold this preflop UTG and be immune to criticism IMO. It's too bad preflop action unfolded the way it did, if he raised anything more you could still have exited there. Flop is too good to fold, and you like the heavy action... fine... but you got a bit nervous, right? Turn is pretty ugly IMO, and I would not continue against a tight player... would against an avg player. If you consider calling the $12 here, why not bet out in range of $12 to pot to dictate and find out if he is in a similar spot as you? Not saying you should have, just suggesting to mull that over. You can continue here, but I hate when I make 2 pair and a bad low on the river when I haven't dictated the action on any street, so I usually preempt those situations in spots like this.
