Your preflop raise is way too high. The only hands that will call that are idiots or hands that currently have you beat.

The guy had been raising about a third of the hands dealt, so I was pretty confident I had him beat...and I did. I didn't feel bad about going all in at all, just thought it was interesting to get beat by a royal in that situation.
