    Default Help with this hand. what did I do wrong

    Hello all, this is my first post here been a looker for awhile now but I need some input on this hand here. I don't have the hand
    history so here is what I have from memory.

    Full Tilt Poker 0.25-0.50 NL

    I'm on the button and get AKo, UTG raiser to $1.50, 2 others call it gets to me and I raise it to $5.00 wanting
    to push people out. Everyone fold execpt the raiser, he calls.

    Flop comes 3 K A rainbow. UTG bets $5 I raise to $15 he calls.
    Turn comes 9h now there are two hearts out there UTG bets $10, Ok now I'm thinking maybe he has AQ or AJ don't think
    he has been on a draw hand the bets he has to call for a draw seem to high but if he is it's going to cost him
    to chase it, so I come over the top and shove it all in $35.00, he calls. Well cards get flipped over and I see he has a set of 3's and I ship it over to him.

    Now my question is what did I do wrong here, I want to learn from my loses but not sure where my play was so wrong, ok maybe
    I had a little bit too much of a hard on for my two pair but not really sure.
    Did I play this hand real bad ? Was it just a bad luck hand ?

    Thanks, Joe....

    You didn't play that bad. You were destined to lose a lot of money on that hand. That's the dream flop for 33 vs AK.

    Raise pre to 3.5x+1bb for each caller in position and 4x+1bb callers OOP. Rest looks fine.

    Thanks for the input everyone. I have been on one of those runs where I'm dumping cash and it's getting the best of me and making me really look at some of my plays. A couple of days ago I flopped trip aces and did not take control of the hand and let the other guy straight out on me. So every hand I lose I'm really looking at trying to improve on things, and this one I just could not find much wrong here thats why I asked. Once again thanks for all of your inputs.
