On Saturday night, I had a great session. It had only one blemish, which was easy to spot when I looked at the bar chart of my stack size over the course of the night. On hand 28, I lost $19,000. I'd been dealt an 8 9 offsuit, and my hand improved only to a two pair, eights and threes. Both the turn and the river were threes, and the highest board card was an eight. An opponent bet $13,600 on the river, and inexplicably, I called. I guess somehow I convinced myself he was bluffing. He wasn't, and turned over an eight and a three for a full house. Of course, he didn't need the eight to beat my hand; his trip 3s were sufficient. I didn't let the misplay get me down, though, and played well for the remainder of the session.
Looking over the hand histories, it turns out I only went all in once, when I won a pot worth $90,700 with two pair, jacks and tens. That's conclusive proof that you don't have to be super aggressive to do well at no limit.
