Angry 1100 pot ends my awsome week of poker

It was saterday night at a local casino here in san diego. I was playing the 200 2-4 blind NL game. BTW I had been playing the best of my life this week (laying KK prefold, and a set full boat..both correct laydowns) The game started and i was quickly up to 300 from the 200 buy in. The nightly turnament started and the game broke down to 4 players. It was a very agressive short handed game. My first bad beat of the night happened when i picked up k-3s on the big blind. Keep in mind we are playing 4 handed where the button raises almost everyhand. So the button makes it 15 bucks..i call feeling that i can out play him on the flop whether i hit or not. The flop comes Kd 3d 6h...I check, he bets 20 i raise 70 straight, to my amazement he calls me. I still KNOW i have him beat. the turn is the 7h. I move all in for my 205 i have left. He called so fast it scared me! The dealer puts the last card of and its the 4d..so the baord is Kd 3d 6h 7h 4d...i say "two pair" he says ace high flush and flips A2d. I AM STEAMING, this guy is acting and talkng like he is a good player. I had to say a few words to him..boy was i steaming...
OK..so a few hours go buy after I rebuy and I work my stack up to around 650, I am feeling pretty confident that i can get to 1k. My A2 buddy busted out and left. Then this hand came up... UTG makes it 20 to go and one of the floor men who was playing calls the bet.... i look down and have 55. UTG has 100 in dollars and the floor man has about 550. THe flop comes Ad Ks 5d...i think i am in good shape, UTG is the only player that wories me but she only has 100 left she cant break me if she hit her set also. I check UTG bets 25 and the floor man raises to 85...i KNOW I have them both beat at this point...I announce.."ALL IN". UTG thinks about it and then folds, the floor man callled instantly and says two pair..he has AK before i can show my hand the dealer deals the turn....K...river....A. The floor man says "we chop?". I say "no we dont chop" and the dealer pushes the the 1100 or so his way. I say "WTF did you think I had, you didnt even think about it" Stunned he says " i thought we chopped when the ace came of" then quitely, "sorry"
This night was so frustrating for me, i ended up loosing the rest of my chips and getting out of that casino. DO you think i played it right? should i have seen the turn before pushing it? surely if i had seen the turn i could have folded the hand?

Brad you dont need to ask questions that you know that answer to... You had him crushed and he was lucky to hit both the A and the K, the guy was obviously an idiot and you should hope to play with him all the time... AK and flopping top two is difficult to get away from however, the guy just got lucky, you played it awesome brad and youre my hero

I still find it difficult a man with as much experience as Jose (the floorman), called so fast. But that was exactly what you wanted. You didn't do anything wrong.

Yeah you definately played that correctly. Even if you saw the turn before you went all in it shouldnt have stopped you from pushing all in. The pair of Kings on the board gives you a full house that beats any flush, ace high, or trip kings. There was nothing. It was just complete bad luck for an ace to hit on the river.

You know what the problem with that I see. Is MONEY. Some people just have to much money they dont really give a rats a$$. No way I would ever call $600 on a A K. That is the only thing I can see why they did this to you.
Too bad though better luck next time.
