Default Live 5/10 NL out of position, top pair, facing heat

the villain is an aggressive chinese kid i stacked earlier but since has rebuilt nicely. he is very aggressive with or w/o a hand. doesn't really set traps.

stacks:

Hero-2850
Villain-2200

the entire table limps to me in the BB and i make it $80 with A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], everyone folds to CO who calls, rest fold.

flop K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] pot ~$240
Hero checks, Villain bets $200, Hero calls.

turn K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] pot~$640
Hero bets $400, Villain raises all-in $1920, Hero???

comments on all streets please.

Why would you ever check/call that flop?

Lead flop, and if not lead then check-raise pot and fold to a push on flop... As played fold, you're beat nearly all of the time.

i really don't know to be honest. i think i was initially going to check raise the flop but then decided to keep the pot small and see what the turn brought. obviously i should have led the flop. i really felt like i played this entire hand wrong except for maybe before the flop.

out of my entire session this was the only hand that had me confused the whole time.

Well yeah, at this point you have to fold, but bet $230 on the flop and the hand plays itself.

as played, you fold....my guess is he has something like 65....

one option would've been to underbet the pot on the flop, you get more info than check/calling.....if you're gonna check/call, I might've led the turn for more than 400 (maybe something like 600) - if he raises you then, you gotta give him credit for having a hand, or at least for outplaying you if he doesn't.....
