Default Full Till $24+2 Missed a chance to slowplay?

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $50/$100
8 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $2170
UTG+1: $2565
MP1: $3385
Hero: $1105
CO: $8350
Button: $3765
SB: $8450
BB: $5250

Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is MP2 with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
3 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $300</font>, 2 folds, SB calls, BB calls.

Flop: K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($900, 3 players)
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero is all-in $805</font>, 2 folds.
Uncalled bets: $805 returned to Hero.

Results:
Final pot: $900

I think I need to check behind on the flop here. This board just isn't dangerous given my hand. Thoughts?

If you check, what are you hoping for him to hit to pay you off? Just bet and hope he has K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] or something.

Exactly. You slowplay to let someone improve but not pass you. There isnt much that he can improve to and call later bet that doesnt beat you.
