Ugly Mofo' of a Beat

Another pokerdotcom special as it appears as I have been getting a lot of beats involving the ol' runner-runner technique here. This was at the limit 1-2 table so good thing it wasn't NL or I would have lost it all on the flop. My analysis of the hand will be in parenthese ():

Figuroao Posted Small Blind $0.50
AJ2390 Posted Big Blind $1.00
Dealing Cards
You Were Dealt (Qd, Qh)
fstgrndr55 Folds
mnfatts Folds
Mayhem77 Folds
jon0499 Raised to $2.00
sakana Folds
DamRiver Raised to $3.00
MrBernstein Raised to $4.00
Ccarcharias Folds
Figuroao Folds
AJ2390 Calls $3.00
jon0499 Folds
DamRiver Calls $1.00

(Pot odds, especially in limit. I actually think MrBernstein has A-A, K-K, or even A-K)-------------------------------------------------
Dealing Flop (Ks,Qs,Kd)
AJ2390 Checks
DamRiver Bets $1.00
MrBernstein Raised to $2.00
AJ2390 Folds
DamRiver Raised to $3.00
MrBernstein Raised to $4.00
DamRiver Raised to $5.00
MrBernstein Calls $1.00

(I rule out K-K in my opponents hand and think he has A-K with all the raising going on)
-------------------------------------------------
Dealing Turn (Jh)
DamRiver Bets $2.00
MrBernstein Calls $2.00

(What, no more capping. I now have MrBernstein on A-A in the pocket)
-------------------------------------------------
Dealing River (Js)
DamRiver Bets $2.00
MrBernstein Calls $2.00

(Terrible river card as the board has paired twice, but I figure that since MrBernstein called on the turn, I think he has A-A and will pay it off because of all the money thats in the pot already, but cluckity-fuck, he has A-K to beat my counterfeited full house via the running Jacks)
-------------------------------------------------
DamRiver has (Qd, Qh)
MrBernstein has (Ad, Kh)
-------------------------------------------------
MrBernstein Wins $31.50 from pot 1 with : Full House, Kings over Jacks


Well, fellow poker bloggers. There's my analysis throughout the hand. What do you guys think? What would you have done differently? Even if i check the river, I'm sure I'd have to call $2 at the end in a $30 pot... Just another one of those days I guess...
