Great Two Days

Today and yesterday were very good to me. Made almost $1000 over the two days combined. This has pulled me into the black for $1/$2; indeed I am now averaging a little less than 2 BB/100 for $1/$2 which is almost respectable. My bankroll is now $2200.

To compensate for all the whining in my last post, here's a bad beat I put on a regular:

$1/$2 No Limit Holdem
8 players
Converted at weaktight.com


Stacks:
UTG stofferx ($112.85)
UTG+1 jessyj ($212.45)
MP1 MeleaB ($98.90)
MP2 Tixmaster ($220.10)
CO AndrewBoccia ($264.35)
BTN fantasticcow ($469.95)
SB Hero ($248.50)
BB YaDaDaMeeN21 ($212.90)

Pre-flop: ($3, 8 players) Hero is SB

5 folds, fantasticcow raises to $6, Hero raises to $18, 1 fold, fantasticcow calls $12

Flop: ($38, 2 players)
Hero bets $25, fantasticcow raises to $66, Hero calls $41

Turn: ($170, 2 players)
Hero checks, fantasticcow bets $66, Hero goes all-in $164.50, fantasticcow calls $98.50

River: ($499, 2 players)

Final Pot: $499
fantasticcow shows:
Hero shows:

Hero wins $496 ( won +$247.50 )
fantasticcow lost -$248.50


Wonder if I can play this any better against a tight regular. Can he have KQ here, given the preflop action? Maybe he can, given that it is button-vs-blind. I guess raising all-in on the turn is fine because a) all my money is going in the middle anyways, and b) he might check a weaker K behind on the river, but call a push on the turn.
