hero call for 250BB?

I actually already finished my session but needed few more FTP points to get a better daily bonus so decided to play a little longer. Decided to play real tight passive as I already had a decent profit for the day (2BI) and really hate finishing the day at a lose. (I know, not the best state of mind to play, but what ever)

Villain is pretty aggressive fish. He dbl'd up early on when he squeezed from the BTN with K7s and raised AI vs CO cold caller on AK9r (they were 130BB deep) he backed into a flush vs CO's AQ

So I think defending here IP vs him when we are so deep is standard.
He pots the flop into 2, and I really find it hard to believe him. Now he pot again the turn.

Thought...

ouch... it's probably a fold given his bet sizing, unless you saw him size this way with that K7 hand or something. I'd expect to see AA,KK and 88 a lot here- I don't think it's a terrible call either though.

although i didnt count the fact that FTP has a pot button... im not used to playing there so i dunno how the fish play with it
