Silver Level
Right then I'm not really looking for hand analysis here, just maybe pointing out to some how not to play poker. I come home from work last night and decided just to 2 table and play for an hour or so. Once again the play at this level is just woeful, and for once I include my self in that.
1st hand, when your beat your beat. This hand was total spew on my part. I even said to myself 'this has to be set over set' and guess what I still called

Lesson 1 - Don't call with an overpair when you know your way behind

I actually misread my hand thinking on the flop I have tptk (my hand AQ). As soon as I call the river bet, I have this sudden urge to throw the laptop through the TV set. It suddenly dawns on me I had the boat. I then look at the HH and discover he had Trips.... OMG I could have gotten so much value on the river it's sick.
Here endeth the lesson!
