Raise a bit more PF. No one can fault you for just pushing either.

You have to get it all in by the turn. I personally would have raised more PF and thereby committing myself to pushing the flop. I don't think you're getting away from this hand so close to the bubble.

I'd bet 400-500 and push every turn.

I agree that I'd raise to maybe T300 - T400 preflop.

As you played it, I'd push on the flop.

Definitely raise more PF, and then I think I just push the rest on the flop. No need to let him outplay you (or try).

I will raise 2.5x BB preflop if the other players will respect the raise and fold a majority of the time. Most likely I just push preflop. I don't like committing 1/3 of my stack preflop when I'm not going to hit 2/3 of the time and I may be out of position.
Edit: If i know the flop is coming King-high of course I play it differently. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

when you hit TPTK in party layouts is it possible to fold them to 2 pair or sets or should you just ignore the fact that players could have sets?

With bad players and these chip stacks you have to ignore the possibility.
