My thinking is that he has a small pair (22-99), based on previous betting patterns. If an A or K came on the flop and he showed aggression against that, then I would likely fold right there.

So the bet on the flop pretty much confirms to me that he likely doesn't have an A or K, so when a K on the turn and A on the flop come, I am thinking that these are good cards for me at that point.I am sure I overthought the hand, both when it happened and afterwards. Ultimately, I got away from my gamepl

What is the advantage of betting $6.50 in this situation, instead of a continuation bet of $2.50-$3.00? Checking isn't a terrible option either, if people at the table are going to donk call anything on the flop. You could have made a smaller bet on the flop, or checked, then made you move on the turn if it wasn't a bad card. Only real problem is you would really have no way of knowing where you stood against a donk that goes all-in on the turn against you. Utlimately, if you are planning on calling all-in no matter what comes, you are better off getting it all-in when you are ahead on the
