Default Genious laydown or retarded play?

Very early in Party 20+2 $11k guarenteed. Don't want to post what happened until I get some replies.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Button (t955)
SB (t820)
BB (t960)
UTG (t1420)
UTG+1 (t1125)
UTG+2 (t1075)
Hero (t970)
MP2 (t730)
MP3 (t870)
CO (t1075)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t65</font>, MP2 calls t65, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls t65, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>.

Flop: (t217.50) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t130</font>, MP2 raises to t350 (all-in), CO raises to 1010 (all-in), Hero??

easy laydown with the action after you

You could be looking at a weaker ace getting crazy but one of them has made 2 pair or a set of 7's

I folded and CO turns over A7 and it holds up to MP2's AT. Thanks.

yeah with the two all ins ahead of u (and the fact that ull be able to see if u made a good lay down beacuse one will be all in--just kidding) ur 8 out of 10 times beat. it sucks but have to lay down. sometimes donkeys will turn over some rediculous stuff this early, but its still the right play

Yeah I think the fold is right-- short stack might be a dingleberry but when CO goes in over the top TPTK is likely no good.

Boy, nice hands to call a preflop raise with, BTW. That's worth noting.

The CO made your play too easy. You either have him beat or you have 2-4 outs, he should have just called the raise.

I'm surprised nobody gave any consideration to the push being an isolation raise. First raiser was short stacked.

There's something wrong with the chip stacks. CO covers the first raiser by only 300 chips according to the initial chip count, but magically seems to cover the first raiser by 700 chips in the flop action.
