Default $2/$4 Deep Stacked With Big Draw

BB is 45/22 over the 90 hands I've played with him. He has checkraised my cont bets 2-3 times and I've folded each time.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Hero ($700.30)
CO ($797)
Button ($205)
SB ($394)
BB ($704.90)
UTG ($394)

Preflop: Hero is MP with 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $2.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $15</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, BB calls $11.

Flop: ($32) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $24</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $66</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $180</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $400</font>, Hero...

I think my reraise to $180 is fine. The problem is that after BB re-reraises I think he most likely has a monster. I think there is a 5-10% chance he has something like 45o or a horribly played AA (I've run into this a lot lately at NL$400 against donkies).

What do you do?

I would just have called his reraise and taken another card. $1/2,$2/4 NL they dont seem to just give up on boards like this on a 3 bet.

My plan would be to call a pot sized bet from him on the turn if you miss the board or raise a large amount if you get there.

If the board pairs this could get ugly.

Normally I do exactly what you wrote, but due to his history I felt his checkraise could be almost anything. I only like calling his checkraise if I think he has a strong hand (2 pair or better). I did not think he had a hand like that.

Obviously once he re-reraised I realized I was probably incorrect. But, so much money is in the pot now. Should I get away from the hand or am I committed?

After you 3-bet and he 4-bets I'd just get it in now, you really aren't in terrible shape against anything except the rare combo draws bigger than you.
