Default True BBV Style: Lose money?? Up the stakes!!

Brag: More than tripled my bankroll last night.
Beat: I still mainly play $50 NL.
Variance: This will probably never happen again?

So I took a beating last night at $50 NL. Seemed that every time I flopped TPTK, someone hit bottom set. Lost straights to flushes. Etc. Just generally awful run. Lost about 6 or 7 buy-ins. And then I was like [censored] IT, I'm upping the stakes. Sit down with like 90% of my bankroll at $1000 NL (6 max).

This was the first hand...

BTN ($1285.40)
SB ($3192.35)
BB ($1400.50)
UTG ($750.70)
UTG+1 ($581.60)
HERO ($1000.00), posts BB

dealt K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (Not a bad first hand eh?)
UTG calls, UTG+1 folds, Hero raises to $40, SB calls, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop ($157): K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (Best flop ever?)
SB bets $100, BB calls, UTG folds, Hero calls.

Turn ($457): 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (uh-oh, quads??)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks.

River ($457): Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
SB bets $300, BB calls, Hero raises $860 and is all-in, SB raises to $2000, BB calls $960.50 and is all-in.

Hero shows K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Kings full of fours, and wins $3037.
SB shows Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Queens full of fours, and wins $801.
BB mucks A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I sat out 2 hands later.

1. Lose Money
2. Up the stakes
3. ???
4. PROFIT
