Opponent was 53/6/2 over 50 hands. Should I have folded the turn(or flop)?

With that high of a PF raise I think you gotta lead the flop. I think only a premium PF hand is going to call that PF raise. To answer your question is hard b/c of the way you played it. If I'm him and I've got a good hand, I don't see anyone slowplaying any hand other than AA on a K-high board. For you, he made a BIG PF call so he's probably got AK or KQ, a high pair, or maybe even KT. He's not going to think you actually have AA so all-in he goes.

I would make him make the decision on his stack on the flop. I would lead for 2/3 pot on the flop.

I actually think the preflop raise was too SMALL. It was 4bb + 1bb per limper. I would have made it 5-6bb + 1bb per limper. They way the hand played out though I would bet exactly what the small stack had left on the flop and fold to any action from the bigger one.

I also do not agree with premium hands only will call. People at the lower levels simply do not care if you raise 6 or 8bb preflop, and the more you raise and they still call the better for you.
