Pre-flop: (7 players) Hero is SB with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
2 folds, MP1 calls t60 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t90)</font>, <font color="#cc0000">CO raises to t180</font>, Button folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to t450</font>, 2 folds, CO calls t270 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t720)</font>.

Played correctly? I think we should put our opponent on a pp, so fold, correct?

As Played this is a fold.

I am not re-raising here PF unless I am putting my stack in the middle. You are too deep for that. You will only build the pot and any resonable c-bet has you pot commited.

My play here is smooth call if you miss check/fold if I hit check raise and shove the turn. the only disadvantage with this play is that it may go 3-way if BB is loose.

just call pf. Then bet hard if A/K hits. Only raise with QQ+ here. As played fold.

too deep for that. You're only calling 10% of your stack to see a flop.

OP played it the way I would normally play it but I think calling and leading on an A or K flop sounds better.

As played, tough spot but folding seems best. I don't think villian is donkbetting AQ/AJ on this flop (unless they're clubs).
