A hand from yesterday

I dont think the ha d from yesterday made my lat post so here it is.. One of the bigger hands I played yesterday was an interesting one. I was in the big blind at the 1k/2k blind level and it was folded around to the button who was a somewhat loose player. He had been raising my blind all day but surprisingly just called, as did the small blind who was a very tight player. I had AJ in the blind and made a raise to 7500. Both of them called. The flop was A85 with two spades. The big blind checked and I bet 17500, and again both guys called. At this point I put the big blind on some kind of draw, probably spades, and the small blind on a small ace- if he ad two pair he would have definitely raised in that spot. The turn card was an offsuit 4 and the small blind checked to me. The only drawing hand that this card completes is 67, but I took the risk that neither of them had that and decided to make a big bet to take the pot down there without seeing a river. So I fired 75k which left me with only 20k behind. Both players thought and eventually folded and that hand took me to around 175k. That’s the kind of agression I’ll need to be able to play with today.
