Neither a bad beat nor a bad play. You got beat by the better hand. There is no way you aren't losing your stack on that hand.

On the turn, I might think for a second about the possibility of an opponent having T9 for the straight, so I would probably not push all-in there. But when the board pairs on the river I'm all-in and losing my stack so it doesn't matter much.
