I think you have him beat. If he didn't raise preflop, which probably rules out AK, AQ, or probably AJ. The only thing you are worried about here is 66 or runner-runner clubs. I think he has Ax  and got aggressive with his top-pair flush draw on the turn.

I am folding this on the river. I am not getting knocked out of the tournament on this hand. Granted, it is a huge pot that you would lose without actually knowing if you were ahead or not, but by folding, it puts you at about the average stack (at least at your table) and plenty of chips to use in better spots.
It is very tough to tell if he has that club flush or not. He could have had a hand like QT  , which would explain the limp in, flop bet call (with TPMK), turn bet call (sure the Ace is scary, but gave him the draw) and All-In bet after a made hand.
I put him on the flush or even higher two pair and fold.

I put him on KTo.

i think the only hand he could justifiably have that can beat you is 66 or maybe K T ...there is 10k in the pot, and you have 4930 left...do you think you have a better than 25% chance of winning?...i think yes, i'd probably call

AJ is a possibility also.
Way to early of position to be calling with QJos pre-flop.
I would have been all in on the turn.

That was pretty much my thinking at the time. Had him pegged on K10 or AJo/A6s when he called my potsize raise on the flop so when the A came I wasn't best pleased.
Nice split opinions on fold/call it seems. Ended up folding and then getting knocked out by the same guy when i pushed a bit later with TPGK (rightly reading another player would call with TPWK) and this guy hit a gutshot straight to put us both out.
Realise it was a bit out of position to be calling with this hand but I'd been picking up nothing but trash cards all night and just as I was very low on chips had a great ten minutes where I'd hit the flop well with a couple of marginal hands. Guess this was the point where I really needed to tighten up huh? 
Thanks for the replies folks.
