I went all in at this point. I thought he was trying to get cute, and bully me early now that it was heads up.

HE CALLS.

We flip,,,

My hand at this point is AJ - with flop being KKJ.

He turns over a Q - J

I am happy as a lark... ready to grab to bowl of cash and walk away.

Turn comes - 10

River = A

I am stunned. I have AAKKJ, and got beat because he caught the 2 running cards he needed to give him the straight.

I think I played it right, but who knows... thats poker I guess.

You made a good play there.
You just had a bad beat. You didn't need that river after all.
I would of called all-in to especially on how he played since then.

Good luck next time!
