Well, I think it's time to reveal the truth. I was actually the villain in this hand. I had A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and my opponent spiked the 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] on the river to take me out of the tournament. I felt that he made a clear error by calling my preflop raise, and that he made 2 additional errors calling my bets on the flop and river. I actually think my flop bet should have been larger to reduce his pot odds more in case he was drawing to a flush, which became a clear possibility to me after his flop call. I'm not sure I had any play on the turn except for an all-in. Any other bet and I am giving him pretty good odds or giving a free card which would have been a disaster.

Perhaps an all-in on the flop would have been the best move? I was a little concerned about him flopping 2 pair because I thought KQs, KJs, or QJs were potential holdings after he called my preflop raise.
