<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1200</font>, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to t7000</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: t8400
Party 30+3 18k Guranteed, top 90+ paid , 120 players left.

basically I thought I had healthy enough stack to not risk a coinflip or possible domination to BB showing significant strength. was it wrong of me to fold?

Thoughts like "not risking a coinflip" are not going to get you the big money. Put your opponent on a range and decide if you are ahead or behind.
