Last night, as promised, I switched to no limit. I allowed myself to see far fewer flops than in pot limit, in respect for the difference in betting format. My stack went up to about $53K early in the session, then steadily descended to about $10K. I had a nice double up at that point, but disaster struck shortly afterward. I was dealt a king jack offsuit, and hit trip kings on the flop. I held out until the river to bet them, then went all in. I lost to a player who'd been dealt king queen offsuit; my jack kicker was outkicked by his queen kicker. I don't feel bad about it, though; I'm sure I made the correct play. A jack is an excellent kicker. If you start worrying about jacks getting outkicked you'll never get anywhere. I really enjoyed the refreshing feeling of no limit after an extended period of playing pot limit, and will keep playing no limit until further notice :-)
