If anything I think your all-in on the turn could be questioned. When BTN put the 2800 raise on the turn in that was almost all of their chips and should have been read as a very strong hand. At least 2 pair and quite likely AK (Which would have also explained the raise on the flop). Even without the pocket aces you would have been beat with a lower 2 pair.

That said, it would have been tough to fold your 2 pair with pot odds of 2.75 to one to make the call, but implied odds were actually worse as BTN was pot-committed and should have put the rest in on the river. Your all-in wouldn't have chased them out of the pot.

I think how to play this hand really depends on your read of BTN's past playing history, if they were playing really loose I probably would have shoved too, if they were playing solid or tight it should have been easier to fold on the turn.

the read is a gigantic amount of diamonds and a gigantic amount of kx hands...and some monsters too.
