Being the noob NL player, I'm just wondering where the line between weak tightness and bold aggressive play that will pay off in the long run is. I'm not talking about bad beats where all the money went with you ahead and losing on the turn or river card.

I would guess it sucks but can be judged good play if you get stacked with (even if you pushed when you were behind):

-a full house to a bigger boat or quads
-an A high flush (or low straight flush) to a higher straight flush
-a set to a higher set

Things I'm not so sure about:

-3 of a kind on a paired board to a FH or getting outkicked (I'm guessing you should not be the one pushing the betting here-- go for the cheap showdown)
-T, J, Q high flush to a higher flush (again, you probably shouldn't be pushing the betting here)
-a set to straight
-a set to flush on a 3 suited board
-top 2 pair to a set
-top and bottom 2 pair to a set or top 2 pair

Don't get stacked with:

-TPTK to 2 pair, set, trips... just don't bet your stack with TPTK


Or, is this a bad way to think about it?
