Villain seemed like a competent aggro oponent and was playing two tables. He was opening 70% of buttons and I never caught him out of line postflop. He never cbet ace high, so I'm pretty sure he doesn't have AQ/AJ.

I was opening 75% of buttons and my image was aggro but solid.

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $6 BB (2 handed) Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Button ($1035.50)
Hero ($1207)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, 6.
Button raises to $18, Hero calls $12.

Flop: ($39) 2, 6, K (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $27, Hero calls $27.

Turn: ($93) A (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $75, Hero raises to $215, Button calls $140.

River: ($523) 8 (2 players)
Hero bets $375, Button raises to $775.5 (All-In), Hero folds.

Did I get owned?

Edit: I bet river after about 5 sec and villain instashoved.

I don't think so. Hard to imagine that he's value shoving worse and he's never bluffing imo.

Is b/f river my best line considering I don't think he has one pair Ax in his range a lot?

If you don't think Ax is in his range much then it's probably better to c/c. Both of your ranges are really polarized after the turn and you're near the bottom of your vbetting range imo.

I dont know, you have to put him on 22, 66, KK, AA or AK to make this fold right? I think that's too tight a range but I don't know if I can think of what else calls the turn other than Kx with flush draw.

btw, I think it's strange that you're so sure of your read that he doesn't have Ax... I mean what % of pots he's cbet have been shown down?

Kind of odd. I usually look up in these spots as the pot odds are so good but not sure if thats right.

I prefer c/raising bigger to set up a river than your line, which is probably what I would do in the moment.

But I'm thinking c/c down is the best line here

I'm not THAT sure, but I did see him not cbet ace high three times and never caught him in a hand where he would have cbet it.

This doesn't really make any sense. Your not really merging, he's probably expecting you to c/r A6. Nor would merging be a good idea here.

Please elaborate ISF. I'm still partly representing that I slowplayed the flop, right? Because of this I should absolutely have c/c the river, which would have been a killer play imo.

Representing a polarized range and then b/f river is pretty horrible.
