Comments on my play?

1/2 table at UB.
Hero is MP1 with A /images/graemlins/diamond.gif K /images/graemlins/spade.gif.
UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 folds, Hero raises, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, CO folds, Button calls, SB folds, BB calls.

Flop is:
7 /images/graemlins/spade.gif 7 /images/graemlins/heart.gif A /images/graemlins/spade.gif

Terrific. Top pair w/top kicker. Probably nothing to worry about with those sevens. Who stays in with a seven after a raise anyway?

BB checks, Hero bets, Button raises, BB 3-Bets... Whoa! Hero calls, dumbfounded. Button calls.

Turn: 8 /images/graemlins/spade.gif

BB bets, Hero calls, Button folds.

River: T /images/graemlins/spade.gif

Wow, what a catch! From top pair to top flush!
BB bets, Hero raises, BB calls.

Total pot = 16.5 BB

BB reveals 7 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif 6 /images/graemlins/spade.gif

Here's the best part: BB starts cussing me out for staying in for a back door flush draw (not mentioning my top pair). I proceed to cuss him out for staying in with 76o after my preflop raise! Serves the bastard right /images/graemlins/wink.gif.

Without a specific read, The flop call is right IMO. I have a tough time laying this down...i think the bb would play a good ace this way too, and you do have the nut backdoor draw. The turn and river are obviously played correctly.
