Look at the hand first and see what your thoughts are on my sad play. Then read my analysis of my play and see if we agree. If not, feel free to leave a comment. Even if it's, "You suck, dude!" I can take it.

I was way too passive here on the flop. I should have bet. He would have either raised hard or called.
I did the turn and the first bet on the river ok, I think.
My reraise on the river was horrible IMO. Likely the only reason he would even call this reraise is if he has me beat. The most likely hand was a Q with one of the 2 kickers that have me beat IMO, 2 different straights, and 3 different fullhouse possibilities. Looking back at the hand, not at the result of the hand mind you, I should have just called his raise on the river.
All I could see were those hot looking triplets. Son-of-a.

You should bet at flop and you over bet at turn. The pot at turn was only $0.75, why did you bet $1.25? If you are absolutely dominating, everyone will fold. Only hands that think they can beat top pair will call. And at turn you bet pot and still get called, you are probably quite behind at that point. And at river it is highly likely your opponent has a boat, why did you reraise all in without the nuts? You are right that you should just called his raise at river, but you did not realize you play it all wrong at flop and turn.
Moreover, with your bankroll size, you should be able to play NL100. You already have more than 20 buy-in's. However, it is quite obviously that your skill isn't there. Probably you still in NL25 for way too long. The quality of play is very bad in NL25.
