Default in the CO with 76s

live 10-20 average/medium loose to average game; nothing outrageous, but my opponents have adjusted to my game. the 1000 dollar nights are over. tonight i'm getting beat.

an average MP limps in, gets one loose caller, folded to me and i limp in with 76s. the button, who is a little gun shy but playing much better, limps behind. the blinds....gee i don't remember.

anyway the flop comes AT2 and the A is not suited. i'm suited to the T and 2 there. i don't like it. the MP bets and it's folded to me, i call and the button raises. well, i didn't think a lot about the the button's raise here. but the button was playing a fairly good game tonight, anyway folded to the MP who calls, call.

turn) a rag; the MP checks, i bet, the button calls and it's folded back to me.

river) A of suit, giving me the flush. so the board is AT2xA. i checked; now i knew that the button had a completed hand, that she wasn't on the flush draw. the button bet and i check-raised. was my check-raise correct? i had the button on AX figuring there was about a 30% chance she had the boat, which she didn't, as it turned out. but after the hand, i couldn't believe that i did that. it was so clearly wrong a move on my part in retrospect, even though my read was correct regarding her not having the flush. would you have check-raised? would anyone have check-raised?

she reraised my check-raise, does anyone call? all responses appreciated.
