Yeah, that looks mighty suspicious to me.

why check the flop?

I dont fold to a button raise after one open limp who then checks the flop and raises the turn.

He could have KK QQ JJ or semibluffing with a flush draw

It's hard to think what type of hand your opponet would check this flop with but raise the turn with here, he could have a wide range of hands, anywhere from a set or flush, two pair, or simply a flush draw, straight draw, mid pair, top pair.

1. 5:1 is big enough odds for me to want to call down with top pair after he checked the flop. Basically you only need to be good here maybe 25% of the time for +EV, little bit higher then 20% because of when he is on a flush draw he will have pot equity when you are ahead.
2. He can't put you on an ace because you called pf from the BB and checked the flop. So he might be trying to push you off a marginal hand or flush draw.

If he's an aggresive opponet call down, if he's straightforward then muck.

I would need at least AK or a read to call down I think. In my experience the button's play is a big hand a very high percentage of the time.

He's only getting 7-2 to see the showdown.

What hand would a straightforward player play this way?

I'd call down. I think I might well be behind, but I'm not sure enough to fold against a typical 10/20 6-max player.

AT also. Lets hope he's getting frisky with A9 or worse or KQ clubs, but I think you're in trouble. Is anybody really playing KK, QQ this way? That seems slightly suicidal.
