The Fake UTG limp reraise |

I play a lot of 6 max lately and really hate to open limp (I might limp with ok hands if there are other limpers)
So I got KJo in UTG and decide to limp and a passive table (If the table is aggressive I usually fold this UTG) its folded to the blinds. SB complete and I decide that if BB make a move I reraise. Probably had some kind of small read on him or a gut feeling.
And indeed BB make a standard raise. I reraise and he calls.

Looks like Ax with the ace of diamonds. 
Might even be AK, like A K .

his line is a bit wierd to me at least but i dont think ur ahead here unless
villian has done this often.
on another note i'd say dont limp at 6 max like almost never
its either raise or fold

I really, really like your preflop play here.
But I think you're dead to a check/raise on this flop, time to give it up i think. Nice play tho!

Don't see how you can call that.
Could be top 2/set protecting, could be TP/TK with Ad,
Id say it was a nice play but it did indeed backfire.
I don't see a flopped flush going all in, unless he has smaller suited connectors and fears you have a bigger diamond draw. Question is, what can you beat and is it worth it to find out?
Call and runner/runner the royal and revel in your busted play becoming the miracle hand.
maybenot.

Well, I did call.
I really couldn't see a flush making that play. And any other reasonable hand should lead hear fearing the one card flush.
The one real hand he could have that scare me is AdKx .
So I figure I have outs to the flush at least.
Dude flip  
and I take it down UI.
Sometimes you simply have to trust your gut read!
