If you're playing tight and aggressive, like I imagine you are, you may not even play a hand in 1 and a half hours, especially if there are preflop raises. Trust me, it happens to me all the time.

If only that had been the problem - you won't win with 72o, but you won't lose much either. I've had sessions as you describe, where I've only seen the turn twice in 2 1/2 hours but came out a winner.

This time, though - I had AQo, AKs and 99 in the first orbit alone, and a number of other premium hands after that, making for a very expensive session. Flopped a lot of solid draws that kept me in the pot, yet only made one (broadway on the turn, losing to a runner-runner 1 card flush). It was a great table, and I had probably the worst 20-40 player in the club to my immediate right, but it was just one of those days.
