From calling station to LAG in one hand...3/6 hand
 

Did this suck, and if so, how badly? UTG+2's has been pretty solid so far, if not a little passive postflop - 23/5.8/0.7. MP2 is a little new, but has been rather tight. New Guy is, well, a new guy.

I would have 3-bet the flop for equity reasons and to try to clean up some outs in this very large pot.
