The call-->raise screams KQ/KT/K9. Throw in QJ, which is a common calling hand, and this is a .... FOLD!

Wait for a better spot, KJ is too often dominated (and in this case often reverse-dominated) to continue.

The real question is are you willing to play this flop all the way to the river for most of your chips?

Fastlife's call before the raise definitely worries me, as does the relatively small size of the raise. I personally would lay this down and wait for a better spot given your stack size and the fact that even if you are ahead on the flop (which you very well might not be) you stand a decent chance of being behind before the river comes.

I personally don't like the prospect of playing for most, if not all, of my stack here, so I lay it down somewhat begrudgingly.
