Default Ultimate Bet bad beat....Which mistakes did I make?

OK...This is not a rant or anything...but I was just flabbergasted at this beat.

My question is if I made any obvious mistakes?

I don't have all of the details, so I'm doing this off of memory...If I left something out, I appologize.

.25/.50 hold'em on UB.

10 player table
I'm in 7th position.

I'm dealt K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

3 callers in front, I call, 1 caller behind(I think this guy was the CO). (not sure who was sb or bb)

Flop: K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Checked to me, I check, CO bets, 3 callers, I call.

Turn: 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Checked to me, I bet, CO calls, 1st player raises, 2 others fold, I reraise, CO folds, (heads up now), 1st player caps, I call.

River: Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

1st player bets, I raise, 1st reraises, I cap it.

Now, ever since the flop, I had the nuts or at least a tie. Well, it turns out that 1st player had the A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 10 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] for the Ace high StrFlush (aka royal).

I didn't think that I would be out drawn with Kings full.

Where did I go wrong?

I probably should have raised pre-flop and/or on the flop though. But I felt that getting beat (once the flop happened) that it was pretty slim.

PF: Raise
Flop: I wouldve bet out but you definitely shouldve raised after you checked and someone bet.
Turn: Good
River: Good

Post river: Run to the bathroom to avoid throwing up in your mouth.

You could have (preverbally, because there is no talbe)) brought a flamethrower to the table and blasted into his face and you could not have scared him away from his draw.

On the river KQ has a bigger boat.

If I were you, I'd be less concerned about the bad beat and more concerned about why you didn't bet the freakin' flop.

Pre-Flop - Raise
FLOP - Come out shooting

0) raise pf.

1) bet the flop. if you were in EP, you could go for the check raise, but with this position it's very risky to assume someone will bet. once you do check and it is bet, you must must raise.

1.5) bet the turn and river, but you did that. word.

2) there is very little chance you were getting him to fold at any point in this hand, nothing you can do about that.

Well, you should have raised pre-flop and bet the flop, but frankly there was nothing you could have done to win this hand. Once the flop came, that A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] was going to stick around no matter what. It was a bad beat, shake it off and wait for the next hand....
