Well that was fun

Took a shot at 200NL today as I woke up feeling sharp and inspired. I am tired of being a fucking pussy and missing out on the EV of playing higher. Yes my BR is very important as I make a living off of this game and need to withdraw a decent chunk every month but fuck me I think 100BI is enough of a cushion to move up and take a shot. I failed obviously dropping 3.5BI in a strong showing. I feel liek 200NL is no different than 100NL besides a slight bit of amped up aggression which I should have no trouble adjusting to. My biggest fault was somehow playing 26/21 over 643 hands. I think I could have played tighter though I dont feel like I spewed because of the stats. I managed to make one river call I regret when I slow played AA preflop in a spot where I had to. My biggest leak is attachment to a hand/outcome. It is essential to view our hand in relation to the action and board texture and play accordingly. How I fuck this up time and again is beyond me. I am basically a fish who falls in live with a starting hand when all signs tell me I am owned. So anyways besides that I think I played solid. JJ AI pre lost to two AK on KKx LOL. Than I sqz AJ cbet Q33fd vs the back caller who I assume to have 55-99 a ton of the time and rarely a Q or a FD. Turn brings three to the flush giving me the NFD and I ship for just over pot only to see T9s. Last but not least was this seet value cut on the river.

48/12/2af I maybe could raise get this in on the flop though I dont mind peeling given his bet and the fact that I know I play better than this donk. Turn is an easy check given he is trapping with a Kx hand a ton or XC AA/TT+. River he pots which is scary. I think there are a ton of worse FD's or slowplayed K's that a jam is the correct play. Thoughts?
