The turning point... Hand Analysis. Any advice???
I haven't post anything in a long while. But, then again, I haven't played in about 6 months. I decided to play today and found myself doing rather well. At this point my stack was more then double the average and I had taken down the last 2 hands in a row. Unfortunately I made a couple of big mistakes on this hand and went tilt from here and busted out three hands after this. I'm posting this hand to get some feedback and see what others think my "real" mistake was and what I should do better next time. Anything in the post that has to do with me is in RED and my personal thoughts on my actions are in BLUE. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Wyldfoxx raises to 690
(Should I have even played these cards in the first place? If so... why did I raise so much? Should I have called instead? Or maybe only raised it to 500 or doubled to 600?)
MJ1707 calls 510
joerob23 calls 510
IToldUSo has 15 seconds left to act

*** FLOP *** [Qs 8c Ah]
Wyldfoxx has 15 seconds left to act
Wyldfoxx bets 1,000
(Was this bet nessecary? Should I have checked? Or bet less? Or bet even more?)
MJ1707 folds
joerob23 folds
(I did get 2 people to fold with this bet... so maybe the 1000 was just right.)
IToldUSo has 15 seconds left to act
IToldUSo raises to 2,865, and is all in
Wyldfoxx calls 1,865
(This, I'm sure, was a mistake! I should have read his bet better. I knew already by watching previous hands that this guy doesn't raise if he doesn't have a good hand. By him going all-in I should have assumed he had the ACE. Even though I had already commited 1690 to the pot I should have protected myself and forfeit my hand.)
(My mistake was fishing for a JACK. One should NEVER realy on shear luck-of-the-draw.)
