Default Limiting Losses

Hey All,
I'm mostly a NLHE player, but have started to like Omaha,
especially the uber-soft games on Party. I'm not a great
player, but am a winner at most of the tables I've sat at.

I had a terrible experience at the Bicycle club last night,
where I had 8-10 bad beats in a row (none qualified for a
jackpot, sadly). It wasn't enough to detract from the huge
profits I had made there earlier in the week, but it was
a big loss for me. I know I can beat that game consistently
and I think I was only outplayed on two hands during the
night, so my question is this: do any of you have strict
limits on how much you're willing to lose in a session,
assuming you're relatively certain you can beat the game?
I'm not sure if being down affected my play, because when
I thought back on the losses, I had my money in as the
favorite 13 of the 15 times I lost. On the other hand,
maybe it would have been better to just chalk up a bad
night when I was down 3 buyins and walk away.

Oh, just realized I hadn't specified this was the $100
NL game they spread, alot of fishy regulars, not many
strong spots, but my question is for in general, since
I tend to win most of my sessions, but have trouble with
big losses when the cards run cold.

Thanks all.
