Default Hopefully a Less Standard Hand than my last (5/10 6max)

My last hand bored some peeps, so hopefully this one is more interesting. I'm pretty sure this line isn't standard.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 max, 6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

CO ($633.62)
Button ($696.75)
Hero ($2535.50)
BB ($1212.75)
UTG ($1551.13)
MP ($315.37)

Preflop: Hero is SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Hero posts a blind of $5.
UTG calls $10, MP calls $10, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero (poster) raises to $55</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG calls $50, MP folds.

Flop: ($140) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $125</font>, Hero calls $125.

Turn: ($390) 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $250</font>, Hero calls $250.

River: ($890) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $800</font>, Hero calls $800.

Final Pot: $2490

Flop check and the turn check, look good. On the turn, I'm check-raising to charge him for his draw and to make his worse hand pay me off.

I would lead flop or turn. Fold river.

Without a [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], I like the flop check. I'm leading a [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]-free turn, though, and check-calling the river. I do not see how that river is a fold without a superhuman read of some sort.

Do you usually raise AKo in the blinds? That gets expensive if done habitually, but fine if just mixing it up.

I've been playing 6max for a week. I have raised AKo in the blinds every time I've had it in an unraised pot. No good?

Yeah, what worse hand pays off a turn raise? KxQd? Also, it'd have to be a push, right? Any smaller raise pretty much commits me unless a [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] hits the river.

That's what I'm alluding to, but I can see why my line isn't so great.

given the concession, how likely is it that villain is betting with missed diamonds or a worse king?

Missed diamonds, likely. Worse King, unlikely.
