I play it the same way and check fold the turn. Going to have to invest to much by leading out on the turn. If he called the flop with a King then hes not going anywhere. The only (normal) hands you are ahead of are 10's or J's or a gutshot. If villian checks behind on the turn I may call a cheap river but I cant say for sure.

I think you bet too much on the flop. 300 is *plenty* to get the same info.

You can shut down on the turn, although admittedly I'm having trouble putting him on a hand.

I would typically raise to 160 PF, though 200 is fine, and bet 300 instead of 400. Other than that I think this looks okay.

Against most opponents at this level I think you should be shutting down here. You're not going to fold many weak K's, there aren't many realistic draws for them to be hunting down, and in the best case scenario where that flop call is a stubborn TT/JJ you're unlikely to get the rest of their stack anyway.
