This isn't intended as a bad beat post, because I'd like to know whether I played this wrong.

When I re-raised him on the flop, I'd hoped he was on a strong K or flush draw. I figured he wouldn't have called $800 with something as weak as K-9. But should I have been more cautious at this point? At that point, I didn't think a call was right. it was either push or fold. I'd love your thoughts.
