Default BEAT: Woohoo, the same beat as Daniel Negreanu & James Bond

If you havn't seen Casino Royale yet look away now as this is a spoiler. I've already refered to this hand in a recent whine, but I think it's worth mentioning again.

$1/$2 Limit Holdem.

I'm dealt QQ and raise with 1 caller.
The flop is Q66 and the betting is capped. I'm thinking $$$$
Turn card seems inconsequential and the betting is capped again. I'm starting to think the worst.
River card doesn't scare me so I keep raising and getting re-raised until he puts in the 6th bet. At this point the sickening realisation hits me and I call to see the inevitable.

Yes, as you can probably guess he flopped quads to nail my flopped full house. Does anybody get away from that hand without losing the maximum possible?

It hurt at the time, but at least I only lost $26 rather that the $300,000 or 20 million like Kid Poker and 007.

BEAT: You made as much in a year as somebody working a 9-5 job would make in a couple of days.

I think you can fold on the river, 6th bet is always quads.
