Default Re: What I done got myself into?

I have been looking over this hand for like five minutes. I've come to the conclusion that it is well-played, despite being so ugly looking (lol).

If you're paying off a 3-bet, which vs. an unknown in a 12 BB pot, you probably need to do, you need to be 66% to win when he calls the river. I think this is probably the case, since your line will elicit a lot of suspicious calls with nonflush hands, and of course he pays off any flush.

The other options here are checkcall down, 3-bet turn, and call/bet river. I think checkcall down is in second place, but it's close. I don't really like the others.

FWIW, at the table I would probably default to calling down, but your play looks good.
