Default 1st few days trying party. Having to make some big laydowns. Help?

Like the title says, I'm giving party another shot after not playing there for over a year because of the constant suck outs. I've been a constant winner in b&m games, UB, FT and Bodog.

I just played for about an hour and I'm down $600 already. This after losing about $1000 yesterday.

Here are some hands.

Very 1st hand of the night.

Seat 1 is the button
Total number of players : 10
Seat 1: miguelitto ( $371.80 )
Seat 2: marymac123 ( $384 )
Seat 3: Hero ( $400 )
Seat 4: pokesquid ( $788.10 )
Seat 5: hugo1232 ( $620.20 )
Seat 6: kimchipower ( $63.90 )
Seat 7: bryan72 ( $341.10 )

Seat 9: jakefan16 ( $197.65 )
Seat 10: eagles2605 ( $396.30 )

My flop play. Good flop for me. Don't have that many hands on villain but what I do have is 37 VPIP and super aggro. Looks like LAG. So based on this I figure check the flop over to him and let him bet it then I'll repop it and take it down. He then min raises me. I'm not sure what this means. He might think I'm trying to resteal or he may actually have KK or AA? Either way I can't fold QQ for another $30 in that spot.

** Dealing Turn ** [ 4c ]
Hero checks.
AMF77 bets [$177].
Hero folds.

Turn comes 3 to the flush. Looks like he has KK or AA with no club with that bet?

What did I do wrong in this hand?

Same orbit 7 hands later or so this comes up.

Seat 5 is the button

Flop play. Not a scary board. Nobody has AK AA or AK so I'm good. I bet half the pot. According to Tracker villain is tight passive/aggressive. What do I put her on? Weaker ace? I probably had a slightly aggressive image but like I said 1st orbit that I sat down. She looked like she wanted to bet the flop. One of those slight hesitation checks like she knew I'd bet it.

** Dealing Turn ** [ Th ]
marymac123 checks.
Hero checks.
** Dealing River ** [ 9s ]
marymac123 bets [$75].
Hero: show me 44 plz
Hero folds.
marymac123 does not show cards.
marymac123 wins $158

Did she hit her kicker? Or maybe flopped a set of fours? Good laydown? Hows my turn check?

One last hand. Different table but shortly after the above hand. My 1st orbit at this table.

What's with the $10 UTG+1 Raise? At first I thought it was KK but probably would have reraised PF with KK. What else is there, only JJ or TT right? Am I supposed to lay this down too? That'd be 3 big laydowns in about a 20 minute time period, and pretty much the only 3 hands I played. What's going on here? Anyway...

** Dealing Turn ** [ 2d ]
OasisAce bets [$95].
Hero is all-In.
OasisAce calls [$106].
** Dealing River ** [ 5c ]
OasisAce shows [ Js, Jc ] three of a kind, jacks.
Hero doesn't show [ Ah, Ad ] a pair of aces.
OasisAce wins $822 from the main pot with three of a kind, jacks.

I'm at a loss here. 4 buyins down on my the first two days back on party, that's more than I've ever lost.

I know the AA hand was bad...hindsight is 20/20 but jesus it seems like all I'm doing is making big laydowns over and over so I lose money just a little slower.
