I played some poker last night, but I did not play it well. I had quad sevens with a guy betting into me, and I still ended the session down. The reason is that I played too loose and too passive. The biggest mistake was in this hand: I was in the CO with A5s and I raised 3x (not a bad play here). SB and BB called. Flop came AdJd8h. Check Check, so I bet 75% of pot. Thinking here is that I have top pair and I wanted to cut of draws. SB called and BB folded. At this point I figured SB for either a flush draw, a J or an Ace. The turn bricked, and I bet the pot. SB raised. Here is my mistake. I should have checked the turn as I was either way ahead, or way behind. When SB raised, I should have known he had me beat and folded. Instead, I re-raised and he showed AT, two pair and I was drawing dead. My mistake was falling in love with my hand and not keeping the pot small with a small hand. I will work on this on Wednedsay when I play again.
