I agree about selectively loosening up. I read a post of yours where you were running 14/3. That is downright nitty. I have said a few times in this forum you should be raising right around 50% of your hands PF (and sometimes more. This gives you fold equity (even at $25 NL), plus it disguises your hand as they can't know if it's AA or KQ you are raising. Did the A74 flop hit you or not?? You get AT on the button with a limper in front of you, pop it to $1. You probably fold the blinds out, and maybe the limper too. Okay, got a tiny pot. So he calls. Even better! Flop comes 274. He checks, you bet $2 into a $2.40 pot and take it down. This is a standard play that happens so many times in a typical session it's pathetic. He likely didn't hit that flop, and will usually give you credit for a PP (or at least credit for AK to his KQ) and drop it. But you wouldn't have gotten the fold had you limped the button.

Agression is goot.....
