Ok, so the players at my table have been pretty average all night, nobody's raising unless they have something, but that could be as plain as nine ten off-suit if the raise came from late position.
I've been playing very tight and I'm in late position with a jack of spades and a queen of hearts - Only one other player in middle position limped, so I raise four times the big blind. Both blinds fold, but I get a caller from utg (the middle position folded too).
The flop comes down jack of hearts, jack of clubs, queen of diamonds, so I check.
My opponent who's been a tad aggressive as of late decides to bet two-thirds of the pot and I flat call.
The turn's a ten of clubs and the same thing happens, again I flat call.
The river is a a ten of spades, so I bet enough to put them all in and they call, showing a straight with ace king of diamonds.
Why does anybody think they're good on that board with a straight?
(Play was at micro-stakes - Perhaps that's all?)

Not being funny but how did you check to UTG? Lol print out table positioning and stick it on your wall. Plus you never told us your hand! Haha

Fair point about checking out of position.
The river was another ten, so the board was pretty loaded with possibilities, least of which is a straight (at least I would've thought?)...
Sorry about that muddled hand explanation, it was rather late when I posted it and retold from memory as I didn't have the hand log for it unfortunately.
I flat-called the turn when utg bet two-thirds of the turn's pot-size - Are you meaning I should have raised them instead?
