Did I play these hands wrong?
 
I am UTG+1 with AA
1/2 NL live game.
Button is extremely loose, very agressive, and will not lay a hand down. BB is a medicore-bad player. Both players have me covered.

I raise UTG+1 to 8
Button and BB call

Flop is
3 5 7 rainbow

I bet 25
both call

Turn: 8
I bet 35
both call

River is a 2
BB checks, I check, button moves all in for 150, the size of my stack. BB folds, I fold and show.

Hand 2
same table a few hands later
UTG bets 12
I have QQ and raise to 30
CO+1 (button in previous hand) reraises to 80
UTG folds, I have 115 left and muck.

Button showed both hands, and I'll post them later.

You should post stack sizes.

The problem with live games, I'm assuming you were playing in a casino, is you need to make a much larger raise than it is online.

So with the first hand, my experience is to raise to $15 to get non-drawing hands out. But a real LAG may still look you up. With an $8 dollar raise, they were probably think you have something weaker than AA. From the looks of things, villan probably called you with A4 suited or something. Or he called with 33, 55, 77, or 88. So he either hit his straight on the river or was milking his set.

With the second hand, unless he is real reckless, he probably had KK or AA.

But then, he could have been bluffing and bullying with nothing.

Bet more on the turn in hand 1. And dont ever show your hand either.


In hand 2 he could be easily bullying you and you have shown the table you lay hands down very easily to agression.

Nah, not really. It all really depends on the table and your opponents, but there's nothing glaringly wrong.

In hand 1, however, your turn bet is bad. You should either just check or make a real bet ~$80. The $35 doesn't accomplish much.
