It seems fine to me, really. I know you ended up playing for 3/5 of your stack and weren't really happy about it, but that seems better to me than playing for your entire stack in this spot.

I mean, I'm not actually happy about seeing Villain's river bet, but in addition to the possibility that he also has AK, there is some chance he has AJ and thinks he's getting value versus your KK. And you are getting almost 4:1.

I guess that's kind of a thin hope, really (that he's betting AJ for value), as is the idea that he's firing one last bluff on the river for just $25 with just second pair or something. But I think I would have played the hand the same way you did, while expecting to be shown AQ.
