Should I have raised his turn bet? him leading out kind of threw me off especially with the possibility of 2 pair, which is why i raised the 5 on the river

I recommend a few things:

1) Always top up your stack to the max, unless you are playing a short stack strategy, but according to your betting, you are not incorporating shorty strats.

2) I like to pot these flops because you'll always get money in the pot from paired kings - which are your biggest investors against your AA.

3) Turn: again, bet more. not potting, but the max that AK or KQ will follow you along.

4) River: slow down, what's more important than adding another $10 or whatever to this already $35 pot, is showing down a hand without a possible three bet by villain. Call.

he was playing 50nl...

i think this was played pretty well, except i dont open for 5bbs, and raise the flop more. i like the turn call. the guy isnt very aggressive (assuming you actually have a lot of hands on him with those stats) and he just lead out which a lot of times means a big hand. the 5 on the river puts you ahead of most of his range so i like the reraise, but i probably raise it a little mroe than you did.

Yea he's not even close to short.

I like your play until the turn. Raising the turn is a must. If he re-re-raises then you have a problem. Board of K-J-10. You have to make sure he doesnt have something like KQ (which is what I am putting him on). A turn raise will really let you know where your at because he is raising you with all the hands that beat you on that board except maybe KQ if he is a little loose.
