Sick run for a quick session

I decided to play a quick session tonight after work and only played 136 hands to the tune of +2.5 buy ins.

The big hands, and since these are the first hands im posting hero is me.

UTG- Under The Gun or first to act preflop
MP- Middle position
CO- Cutoff
BNT- Button
SB- Small Blind
BB- Big Blind

SB: $21.80
Hero (BB): $100.00
UTG: $135.45
CO: $190.20
BTN: $130.30

Preflop: Hero is dealt Js 8c (5 Players)
UTG calls $1.00, CO folds, BTN calls $1.00, SB calls $0.50, Hero checks

Flop: ($4) 3c 9d Th (4 Players)
SB checks, Hero bets $2.75, UTG calls $2.75, BTN calls $2.75, SB folds

UTG had 8d 6h (a straight, Ten high) and LOST (-$100.00)
Hero had Js 8c (a straight, Jack high) and WON (+$101.75)

Smaller pot but still feels good to play a hand a certain way, ie betting with the stone cold nuts knowing that if you get a call the other player will stack off with nothing.

I also had a super loose player at one of my tables who decided to pay me off with close to nothing everytime I had a big pocket pair for about a buyin of the course of the hands at the table. It's a great thing to play well but it's even better to run well!!!!
