Re: flush over flush, set over set, etc
Flush over flush, and even a third flush hand, happen quite often - worry. Set over set does happen, but it is usually just going to cost you some money - be aware, but don't worry about a small raise. Just consider that if you reraise on the end, you are opening up the possibility that you will get raised all-in.
KK vs. AA will happen to you about 1 time in 5000 hands (not 1 time in 5000 that you have KK, but once in 5000 total played hands).
Your boat getting beat by a higher boat is obviously going to happen more when the board has two pairs - then fairly often when there is a single pair. Not much you can do.
Boat beat by quads, straight flush etc. - well, unless you are psychic, you are probably going to lose your stack.
