AQo preflop call, bad beat or bad call, or both

[pshea]

Home game, 6 players, I'm SB.

Blinds .25, .50

all players limp to dealer, dealer raises preflop to $12

I call, BB folds, next guy folds, MP calls, and folded to dealer.

Pot $37.50

Flop: A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 10 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

I go all in 88.25, folded to dealer, he calls, he has me covered by about 50.00.

I show A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

He shows A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Turn, K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], river 10 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I lose, was this a bad play on my part, the $12 was a standard preflop raise for any pocket pair or big cards for the dealer, so I don't think my preflop call was bad, some of you may think it was however.

I guess my question was is this just a bad beat, or bad play on my part.

Thanks, my first post, love the forum.
