Whoops!! Was this a mistake?

I can't seem to find solid hand histories from Royal Poker, so I will just type it out.

.05/.10 NL 10 hander

I was dealt from small blind.
4 callers to me, I call the .05, BB checks.

Six left at the flop. Flop comes:


I check, three more check, player bets 0.10, I raise 5.00; everyone folds but the 0.10 better who raises to 9.80. I call.

Heads up at the turn. Turn comes:

I push all in for 10.36; he calls.

Heads up at the river. River comes:


I lose to him holding:


Full house beats my flopped straight.

Do you all think this was a mistake, that I pushed it all like this?
I guess after the turn I should have put him on trips and assumed he hit his boat the way he bet, or even four of a kind. He had just been so horrible all night. I saw him call a 5 dollar raise with KXX on the board, to hit his Q on the turn, to call the player's all-in bluff and to win with a pair of Q's about 8 hands or so before this. I just thought he was insane and it was going to be easy money,

Even schmucks get lucky sometimes. I might be inclined to push right there on the flop since the raiser is gonna hang around.

Don't beat yourself up over it.

Yeah after talking about it on IRC I realized that mistake.
To be honest I was just over excited, clicked call without hesitation, and then called again thinking it was money in the bank (for me).

You are (or should be) psyched on the flop when your raise is reraised. I would put him on a set or a lower straight here (more likely a set). I would definitely say that you want to reraise all-in on the flop. If he folds (which he would have in this case), you take down a nice pot. If not, you are WAY ahead, holding the nuts and all.

Yes, you want to play with some caution when the board pairs. This was just a weird hand, I don't really know what the guy was doing but you were way ahead until the river. Given the range of hands that you can reasonably put him on raising you on that flop, I would generally be very cautious about the turn bet here...I would think that there are very few worse hands that can call your all-in there. But then, the rest of your stack is probably about half the pot at that point, so how much less can you really bet?

I think your problem is solved by reraising all-in on the flop.
