Was this out of control in spite of it working?
 
Don't you hate it when you totally brick a hand with lots of outs? I figured I had to bet the river, or lose the hand for sure. Do you consider this reckless? What about the earlier streets? I did feel I had some deception and fold equity on my side. No real read on villain, but I was starting to think he was a little loose.

Looks like he must have missed his draw too, and maybe AKQ high would have won without the bluff.

In terms of the river bluff itself, it will probably work often enough to show a profit, especially if your earlier aggression will get opponent to lay down one pair even a small amount of the time.

I think the play up to the river was a bit spewy though, so I wouldn't usually be in the right position to make that river bluff.

Why check-raise fourth? Do you think the other guy will fold? Do you think King-high is the best hand? Do you think the Jack is coming (hey, there are three left--you never know)? I do like your play on all other streets, though.
