After losing the previous posted hand with QQ a few hands later in the UTG position i look down to see KK. I once more raise to 10 dollars trying to make some of my money back and get one or two callers. As I stated most wont raise preflop but will call with a wide range of hands. I get 4 callers and 2 are the older 60ish rock and the asian whose stack is slightly smaller but still calling everything. Flop comes down 9 5 3 rainbow. Im thinking this is a good flop for KK and being first to act I fire $35 into this $50 dollar pot. The only caller is the loose asain guy which makes me believe im way ahead. Turn brings a blank and i ship it all in for my last $63. The asain guy thinks for a moment and calls. I say this might just be the shortest session ive played and he responds no its yours. The river brings a 7 and I table KK he looks back at his hole cards and goes ohh i have to pair and turns over 97 of clubs. This has been my luck the past month no matter what i have I seem to this kind of luck. Hes got at most 5 outs and manages to hit it. Is there something in my betting size and shoving spot thats horribly wrong? Should I have not bet as much on the flop, but with 4 others and didnt want to play it to passively. Help me out cause I need some advice to get my roll flowing in the right direction again.

Yea in most loose/passive 1-2 games like this I'd def raise to $12-15 pre. You said "they won't raise preflop but will call with a wide range of hands." So charge them more to call when you have a strong hand.

You're not really asking for advice IMO. I'm not really sure what "blank" means for the turn, but I don't really consider anything a "blank" on this board. You got all the money in way good, and got sucked out on. It's poker. Post in bbv next time.
