Default BB Special 2-Pair, Scary Turn?

I called the flop so I could check-raise the turn. It seemed a great opportunity with the aggressor directly to my left. Then the flush hit and I got scared. The pot was big so I didn't want to fold (plus I have boat outs)... but calling down can't be correct here, can it? Bet out on the turn instead?

Were it heads up between you and UTG this would be the play. That didn't happen, you got a cold caller who might be on a flush draw.

Your hand has the advantage over speculative hands on the flop. A speculative hand will punish you on the turn or river if they make thier hand. Its imperative that you three bet this while the advantage is yours.
