Default Pacific Trout hand -- K9s in big blind vs. button raise

This was from last night's LAG Pacific Trout game.

Hero is semi-drunk and complaining about his O/8 losses. Most of his chips have come from calling a re-reraise all in with AK and drawing out on JJ.

Villain does not seem drunk and is probably playing fairly good poker.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (7 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

UTG (t4100)
MP1 (t4405)
MP2 (t3580)
CO (t4060)
Button (t3895)
SB (t3100)
Hero (t3860)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t450</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls t300.

So, what's the thought on this? I think button is going to raise a fair amount of hands here, but many of them will have K9 dominated or smushed like a bug. Still, it's suited, and hero's finished most of a bottle of Rosemount Shiraz, so it felt like a call.

Flop: (t975) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t600</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t1200</font>, Hero...

The flop should either worry button or make him happy. Hero bets, villain minraises, hero takes another sip of wine and...


P.S. Game was much fun.

Reasonable to call pre-flop, but I have no idea why you are betting out on the flop. Check/fold there.
