Pick a better spot.
"pick a better spot" only applies to tournaments as far as i'm concerned, where the risk of being stacked is far more detrimental. this play is +EV, we should make it.
how do we pick a better spot anyway? we iso'd against a super wide and weak range with a hand that has >50% equity against basically any two cards (minus the best ones, because he has a PFR over this sample and is likely raising 88+,AJ+ etc). then we flopped 30-40% equity and our decision is now trivial. where was our chance to pick a better spot? on the flop? preflop?
