Default Backdoor flush?

party 2-4 game, first hand so i have 200 dollar stack and post in cut off.two limp i limp with black fives and button raises to $11 all call.flop comes AJ6r and it is checked around. turn is pretty five of hearts, checked to me,i bet the pot and get one early position caller. river is a third heart. checked to me and i bet 50 and am checkraised all in. i would probably call easily if there had been a bet on flop but without it the backdoor flush seems fairly reasonable. i have no read on the player so i dont know it he might disregard the flush and make a mistake if he spiked his kicker for A's up.
sure looks like im beat huh?
any feedback appreciated

It is very possible he backdoored it. He might have AJ, checked his 2 pair on the flop. But I think it's more likely he has the flush or he slowplayed a bigger set.

hey matt,
im thinking its 95ish to you and the pot is 230ish? ithink the players at this level are bluffing the flush with Ahx x-
T-K at least or Aobighearthere, AJ etc players at this level still make the mistake of slowplaying top two when a good amount goes in. i dunno i think you lose more than you gain thus i call expecting only a little value in the long run with no read. was there a chence someone missed a checkraise becasue some one else sniffed it out ? take some notes win or lose nice to see a post from you we gotta get together some time i just got back form vegas too btw!

i thought it was close but as i looked at the k7h, which was about what i was expecting i was curious if others thought it was close or if this should have been a semi easy laydown. these are the sort of hands that give me a tough time online but i find much easier to play live
