Okay, so I typed in your hand number and watched the hand. You both played this poorly and you both deserve to lose. Give the money to the little poodle in the SB.
Pre-flop ~ Hero in the stetson limp-calls 3x. Villain totally outplays you here. You should have folded that. Obviously his hand is easily ahead of yours. You will need a lot of help from the board to beat him and that help is likely going to cost you money with zero guarantee of actually getting any. He could have bet a little bigger but there are only 4 seats here and only 2 potential callers so 3x is totally fine and it indeed gets him the perfect isolation that he wants. If you want to build a monster in the lab do it when he’s willing to close it off for free. Otherwise, fold your garbage right here 100% of time.
But we’re here on the flop and so now that we are here we have to keep playing. Villain bets into you for 2bb (approx 30% of pot). You have bottom pair back door hearts (nowhere near nuts btw). This is a check-fold almost 100% of the time. You decided to come over top for double-pot! Whatever you thought you were doing, you were repping 97 or maybe 74 for the straight. At 3x pre probably only 97. Whatever it is, at that sizing it is very bluffy. If you thought he had whiffed and that bottom pair is ahead, bluff is fine because you are weak af here and extremely vulnerable, but if you thought that you were strong (you were wrong but hey), you should have value bet. You come overtop for double pot! Bluff is fine but you could have bluffed with less than that. Pot would have probably been plenty. And you are definitely bluffing because your hand bp-bdf sucks, sorry/not sorry. Any event, he calls. I can question that call but obviously he did not believe you and had you on a bluff. A pot bet he MIGHT have believed you and folded, but he seems pretty fishy. Bottom line though, even most call stations will fold to 2x pot and he didn’t so he has to like his hand! That’s an alarm bell ringing in your ear.
Turn ~ So now that we know absolutely that he has you on a bluff (obviously because he likes his overpair). Continuing bluff is not very likely to work. However, you got horseshoes on that turn for 2-pair (that is basically impossible for him to put you on too). Villain checks to you. Holy cow. Is he slow playing 88 here knowing that you are willing to splash? Or is he really just afraid of the pot despite that massive call he just made. The 2 can’t possibly scare him, that’s for sure. It would pretty much have to be 88 or 66 because he would not call mass with 22 and you block 55. Your 2-pair might not be good here. But you do have a super sneaky 2-pair and yes it might be good here. It’s a bad spot for both of you. If you are confident then this is a value bet situation but what do you do? Splash for nearly 2x pot (again!) with like a 3rd of your deep stack. That’s preposterous! You are continuing bluff! I mean you’re not because you have 2-pair but your bet size tells everyone at the table BLUFF! You are throwing a buttload of chips around in a very sticky situation. To be fair, knowing that he has JJ, I’m not sure that I like his check to you but it is a sticky situation for both of you that you have both made a mess of. He calls you, so at that sizing (rightly or wrongly) he thinks that you are continuing your bluff.
River ~ Villain jams YOU. Whoa! This hand just went nuclear! You call. I mean by this point any move you make could be boss or disaster. It’s THAT f’d up. This hand is such a cluster!@#$%. The pot is way outta control, you can’t really play it. I mean obviously you didn’t have JJ in his range. You should have. He opened 3x pre to your limp. He led 30% on flop. He called your two ridickaliss bets. You think he had air 100%? You had him on a ‘low hand miss’ ok never heard that term before I guess you made that up, but I can guess that it means that you had him on 2 overcards that whiff the board. You can’t assume and zero in on AK whiffed. You have to think of everything in that overcard range. JJ is definitely in that range. Yes he could have been bluffing, he could have also had A8, but you had every opportunity to avoid this disaster. You thought you had him dead to rights but the spot is actually beyond gross and you don’t even see it.
You could have folded a crappy hand pre and kept all of your stack.
You could have folded your crappy hand to his 3x open which had you heavily out-ranged, and kept all of your stack save 1bb.
You could have opened for 4x or 5x and he would have taken your hand more seriously and may have folded to your huge bluff (although he seems pretty fishy so maybe not).
You could have used normal bet sizing on flop and turn and still lost on bad river card for you but would have lost waaay less.
You could have folded river, but by then you were pot committed I guess. Although it’s a ring game, you can fold and top up and save 70k. Also, if you would have used normal bet sizing on flop and turn you would not have been pot committed and could have folded river easily. Also - with normal bet sizing he might have pot bet the river instead of jamming it and maybe you could have called (and lost but lost a ton less).
Yes, you were unlucky but you made a whole lotta funky poor plays. You can’t control the luck but you CAN control your funky plays.
Thanks for the entertainment, that hand was absolutely bonkers to watch, awful spot after awful spot after awful spot. 
AND EXTRA EXTRA READ THIS!!
Oh, and I just checked your bankroll because your rank made me curious. You have just under 200k now. You lost 200k in that hand alone, so you had OVER half your bankroll in your stack at that table!! Why are you playing those stakes … and betting 55k (over 10% of your bankroll!!) on ONE single turn and then calling a river jam with over 70k! That is just holy mad cow, Batman! Thank god it’s play money. Why should you be pissed off with a game if you are not playing it remotely seriously in the first place?
