Don't have hand history, but here it is:
0.5/0.10$ NL Hold'em

I'm dealt AA and raise .60, 3 callers. Flop comes Jd 3d Ah, guy to the right of me (first to act) bets 0.50, i raise 2.50, a very big stacked guy calls, the original better calls.
Turn comes Ks or Kc, no matter anyway, i was fearing a diamond. With no flushes on, I put out a nice bet to discourage any-one following a flush draw, big stack calls, SB raises all-in. I call, the big stacked guy calls, they turn over TOTAL rags. I win 24.85$
In their defense they were one card away from a straight (they had 24o and 45o)
Am i right to think:
1. WTF are you doing calling a pre-flop 6xBB with 25o?
2. WTF are you doing calling a post-flop 25xBB raise with a straight draw?
3. WTF are you doing calling 2 post-turn all-ins STILL drawing?
