Default Interesting Hand from live $200 FO

I don't normally post many hands here but i thought this hand was pretty interesting and probably will create differing opinions (i may be wrong, it could be clear cut to most, but i don't think so). Anyway i was wondering what people would do in player A's situation? I think it's close between pushing and folding

A and B have only played a couple of times together, but would not have any reason to think the other was not fairly solid.

Level 4: 100/200

Effective Stacks
Player A: 8100 (UTG+3)
Player B: 8600 (UTG+2)

UTG+1 limps as does Player B. A raises to 850 with KJo. It is folded around to B who calls.

Flop(2200) Q92 rainbow

B checks, A bets 1625 and B thinks for a little while and calls

Turn(5450) 6 completing the rainbow

B bets out 1600 leaving over 4500 behind. A has 5600 total at this stage.

Action to A and why?
What hand do we put B on?

Id fold if I were A cause B likely knows A missed his set and the 6 sure as hell never helped him...If I were B and A pushed Id call.
Id put B on a small pckt pair that missed their set, Im goin with 1010 as a read

You put B on an underpair to the Q, so do you not like a push from A?

You really think A has no fold equity? What do you put B on? I think B would need KQ minimum to call and considering the weak lead on the turn there is a good chance imo that he has less than that.

Come to think of it, he might have even hit his set because if the board wasnt rainbow he woulda re-raised. If he does have a set, calling would be the right move on a rainbow board, then a small bet on the turn to bait A into a re-raise or even a preferable PUSH from A...Which then B can happily call or push respectively.

This is a for sure fold from A even without the possible set... A flush draw board would have even gave A more fold equity.
