Different game same fortune

I'm taking today off now as I've just played 30 hands and lost $600. I am just getting screwed at the moment. First hand I had AA, flat call the raise preflop and reraise on the flop. Guy check raises me all in, I correctly put him on a flush draw and he hits. Not hugely bad but it just hurts as yet again I am a 68% favourite in a big pot and sodding lose.

Next one I have 88 and call the preflop raise and it comes 68T, obviously he has TT and I get stacked again as the river brings he 6 for a full house. I feel horrendous, every day seems to start like this and I just can't get anything going.

I hate this and I'm now $600 up over the last few days and honestly wonder why I bother at times like this. I've been dealt a number of coolers and it really sucks.

My confidence is ebbing away again and it's less to do with confidence in my play and a lot more to do with my confidence in any fortune whatsoever in the hands I get all in with
