Yeah. You're beat.

But, it only has to be a retared bluff/worse hand 1/8.5 times (getting 14.5-2 to call down).

Why are we 3betting this flop?
We have a weak Top Pair.
The PFR just checkraised over two opponents.
Draw-lite board.
I call down this flop.
And I don't mind calling down the whole way against some opponents.
But playing passively gives me a chance to see if UTG wakes up and raises BB at some point.

As played, I am convinced we are behind to the 2nd check-raise.

You overplayed this hand, imo.

My general rule:
If I am going to 3bet with a hand this weak, I will fold before showdown if given the information to do so.
If I insist on seeing showdown, I will play it more passively.
But I will not 3bet the flop and bet the turn and ignore all the info that I receive by continuing to call all the way down.
I think it's gotta be one way or the other.

Nope, try again.

CM, the original PFR is all in preflop. The villain in the rest of the hand called 2 cold, he could have a wide range of holding's here imo that he can be trying to protect.
