I would have looked to check raise the flop. If you give a free heart that is fine and you get paid big on the turn. The line you took was very straight forward and that is fine, however you have to lay down to the river bet. You called out of frustration when you had to put him on the 8 (the K was much tougher to nail him on). I think if you check raise at some point it may scare him a bit, but really the way the cards turned and rivered you just ran into a tough break, but you could have saved $24 on the river by not calling with a near certain loser.
