Before I get started, I think that I played this hand all wrong. But my question is not necessarily about this hand, but rather a general one.
Last night on PP, $20 NL/6 handed. Blinds are t50. Hero (1250) is on the button with K /images/graemlins/diamond.gif6 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif. Everyone folds to Hero. Hero raises to 150. (It was a semi-steal attempt) The SB(900) calls and the BB(770) calls.
Flop

SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks
Turn
Q /images/graemlins/heart.gif
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets 400. SB reraises all-in. BB folds. Hero calls.
Results:
SB had A /images/graemlins/spade.gifK /images/graemlins/spade.gif for an Ace high straight.
This is not a bad beat post, but rather should I have played this hand at all? If you have a hand like K6 suited on the button, should you try to take down the blinds? I run into this situation a lot of times and was just wondering when it is the right time to try and steal. The SB was LAG and the BB was weak-tight.
