Default $5+0.50 KK, don\'t want to mess with flop

The flop was such that I didn't really want to give cheap cards. Is this optimal? Am I giving away value by not drawing someone along?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t50 (7 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Hero (t2715)
UTG+1 (t2565)
MP1 (t1280)
CO (t3195)
Button (t1060)
SB (t1250)
BB (t1435)

Preflop: Hero is in UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="red">Hero raises to t125</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="gray">MP1 folds</font>, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, SB calls t100, BB calls t75

Flop: (t375) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)
SB checks, <font color="red">BB bets t150</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to t2300</font>

I raise 150 pf and raise flop to like 555 to give a flushdraw the chance to push.

Agree on the PF play i hate that raise 150 or 200 i make it here, same with flop i want the flush draw in so i make it 500 or so then shove on non diamond turn.

We still have the 2nf then, but yeah i think it comes to an error in my game here if the diamond comes and he has the Ad i cant fold for his last 600 into this pot.

Thanks for the post fix Sccoty. Its a bigger error to even consider folding 2nd Nut flush here.
