Default I ain\'t quitting until I\'m break-even

WARNING: Less money than you can find in your couch (if you're careless).

I'd been running like [censored], being down 4 buy-ins in an hour. The only person that saved me from complete tilt was the fish that handed me back 2 buy-ins when I chased him to NL50.
Then just about when I decided to give it up for the night, the following 2 hands happened in 1 minute.

Beat: Still only NL25
Brag: flopped quads
Variance: Still ended 4 buy-ins up.
