Default Running mediocre and giving away pots

$15/$30 last weekend. An hour and a half ago I sat down. An hour ago I played my first hand which was pocket queens which were ran down by a backdoor flush which I paid off. I pick up KcTc in early position and open for a raise for my 2nd hand of the night. Guy to my right laughs and says he would fold pocket kings. Loose aggressive LP calls. SB calls. Flop is three tiny rags, I bet and both call. Turn pairs a rag and is checked around. River is nothing of consequence and is checked around again. SB mucks instantly and LP shows KQo and I muck.

Couple hours later there's one limper and I raise in LP with pocket 7s. Loose BB calls. Flop is K Q 8, is checked to me, I bet, and both call. Turn is another Q and is checked around. River is a J, BB bets out and we both fold, and he flashes ATo.

End of the night a tilty, shortstacked player open raises in the cutoff. I make it 3 bets in the small blind with AcKc. OK big blind coldcalls. CO 4-bets, I cap, etc. Flop is T x x no clubs. I bet, BB calls, CO raises, and we both call. Turn is a blank, checked to cutoff who bets all-in, I call, BB raises, I fold. River is a king, BB shows KTo, CO shows AJo and goes home. I suck down the rack I'm stuck and go home too and haven't been back since. Bleh..
