I like this play a lot.

The C/R out of the blinds is a classic. Once you call the 3-bet, I think you are committing yourself to a showdown, as long as the 3rd spade doesn't hit and incite a ton of action.
I think you will be shown a busted nut flush draw enough here for this to be profitable--coupled with the times you hit your lucky six.

I like it.
