1/2 Flop move - comments please?

[Ringo]

Hi guys.

Hand is recalled from memory. Can I have some comments on how bad this play is? /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I have 4d 5d on big blind. EP min raises, and MP1, SB and I see a flop of:

6h 7d Kd.

SB checks, I check (comments?) intending to re-raise EP. EP pots it, and all fold to me. He has $60 left, and I push. He calls, shows AK, which holds up. No biggie, but..

Should I have led the flop - maybe potted it?

If EP had a bigger stack, I would have 2x his raise. Is that a sound play? What if turn bricks, and I end up in a huge pot, out of position, in all sorts of trouble?

Thanks in advance!

If villain you're sure that villain is going to bet this flop, then I think it might be good to check thru first with the plan of raising when it comes back around. This will trap more $$ into the pot, and make your play of pushing the draw even better.
