Solid meaning what? Tight? I wouldn't c/r and fold, if I was c/ring this board it's with the intention of calling. If not you can c/c and see what he does on the turn, but turning your hand into a bluff here is kinda bad.

3-bet PF. As played just call the flop. Maybe lead a good turn.

Sorry didnt mean to post that

Re: Is this the right way to play, or should I have just called the flop?
 

I think I would start by 3-betting PF. Try to avoid playing OOP by just taking it down PF or at least narrowing his range.

As played, I would fold. Big overshoves at this level are usually the nuts.

meh this is probably ok, depending on the opponent. Just because you raise doesn't mean you have to stack off. You think your hand is good UNTIL he tells you otherwise, it's not the same as turning your hand into a bluff.

Re: Is this the right way to play, or should I have just called the flop?
 

I don´t think cr/fold is optimal. Not only do you have decent showdown value, you have 25% equity vs AA. All that just went out the window. I would just call unless I am prepared to call a push.

Re: Is this the right way to play, or should I have just called the fl
 

I usually 3bet this preflop.

I also usually call the flop, but a raise is probably ok.
