Is there any way I could have gotten away from this hand the way it was played?

Of course you knew how tight or loose this player was.
Some say you have to follow KK all the way... this time it bit you.
My advise: Put it behind you and move forward.
lucky River card for JAY, but I have folded KK when an Ace flops and someone raises.
Hard to fold - but KK can be very much a killer hand (as they all can be lol)
I dont think he would push with AA either so I know I am going to be in front
I dont like to gamble preflop much anymore but here I would have for sure
I also wouldnt have pushed in with AK either preflop
There was nothig you could do here.
Even if you slow play, villain is NOT coming off that hand. He's looking down the throat of a Royal Flush. Who in their right mind would ever fold that?
As for your hand.....the flop came in your favor. There would be no reason for you to believe that he had those 2 particular cards and your only move would have been to push post flop anyway. This was just pure bad luck.
