80/160 GAME AT BELLAGIO

[schmidts31]

In the first week of April, I made first trip out to Vegas to play some poker at the Bellagio. I had a fun weekend, that ended with about 15 hours of poker play.
On the 3rd and final night of my trip I was able to get back into the 80 game after playing in it for about 10 hours the previous 2 days.
Half and hour into the game, which was filled with a fair mix of local pro's, and several tourists, I was seated in the 5 seat and welcomed the new arrival.
I was up about 1200 and waiting for my next big hand when it came up.
A new player, sat in seat 1 with 5k...he was a tourny pro who was waiting to get into the 2k-4k mixed game.
I sat figuring to get caught up in a hand with him and make some money that he would be willing to part with out of enjoyment for the game...I don't think this limit makes him feel anything for it but time passage.

Here it is
Pro raises BB+2 folds to me and I 3 Bet with QsQc, everyone folds back to pro, who calls.
Flop: Qh Jh 5s
Pro Bets, I raise, he calls.
Turn: 3d
Pro checks I bet, pro check raises, I 3bet, pro 4bets, I 5 bet, pro 6, I 7, pro 8, I 9, pro calls.

At this point, I know exactly what hand he has, and I am in a awesome position...this is the pot of the night, and I have the nuts.
River: 6h
Pro checks, I bet, Pro check raises!!!!!

I sit for about a minute thinking about 3 betting knowing what his hand is and figuring he is possibly a lot weaker than that. I end up just calling.

What would you guys have done???
