I'm running at like 200BB/hr. for the month of October. Does that mean I should move up to $2k/$4k?

Played Omaha today. It went as it always does, terrible. I feel like I should be crushing these guys because they keep putting their money in so bad and letting me jam them when my equity is fantastic. Maybe I play too nitty preflop, maybe I'm not as good postflop as I think I am, maybe I run bad. I honestly don't know, but I still think I should be winning in these games at least a little. Here was my favorite hand with the standard uncounterfeitable nut low draw, overcards on the flop and broadway gutshot on the turn with nut flush draw against no pair almost no draw and bare nut low draw. I'm like -1100 in 10 and 15 Omaha between yesterday and today. It's not a ton of bets but I just don't understand how I never scoop a big pot.

Also, I'm bored of my crappy old phone so what should I get to replace it? I really like playing with Crazy Mike's iPhone so I think I need something with interwebs+qwerty keyboard. I have Verizon so the obvious answer of "get an iPhone" doesn't work. I live in the stone age so I assume all phones are capable of texting these days? Being able to put music on it isn't really important but it couldn't hurt. I don't really know what phones cost so I'm wanting to spend less than 1k and preferably less than 500.

Live 30/60 game. LAG opens in MP, blinds call
Flop is 8d5d2c BB c/r MP and they go 4 bets w MP stopping
Turn is 8s, BB bets, MP raises, BB calls.
River is 5s BB checks, MP checks.
BB quickly throws his hand into the muck face down. MP turns over 33 and rakes in the pot.

So awesome when stuff like this happens.

What is normal wtsd for like 10 and 15 6max games for someone that is 30/22? I'm like 36 which seems really low but I already feel like I never fold.

Here is a fun Omaha hand I played yesterday that I am like 100% certain I misplayed and should not have capped the river. If it was a live game I would never think about 4betting due to 5bet threat but here it was basically "lol flopped nut boat better raise" even though he'd have to be beyond retarded to play 24/2T/2J this way and worse than mildly retarded for 44.

And here is a Holdem hand along similar lines. Once again I didn't really want to 3bet river but he had only half a bet left so I had to give him extra credit for trying to just dust off his chips.
