Default Trying To understand my loses

I have been doing really badly on Prima.
Suffer there more than anywhere else.

I have my fair share of bad beats (like losing $102 with AA all-in pre-flop).

However, looking over my stats I see that most over my lost money seems from small amounts.

I am talking about NL $100 (0.50/1.0 nlinda)
Out of my total hands played (5,237) only 46 have loses of $10 or more as opposed to over 60 wins over over $10.
All the rest are smallish numbers with many of them being 1 or 2 dollars.
Problem is that these mount up very quickly.

The $102 loss today with the AA is by far the biggest loss I have had with one hand. In fact the next hand down is -40 and the one after that is -25.
On the other hand - I have 2 big wins (over 90 each) and many more over 40 and over 25.

So, where is all the money going?
Am I not making enough out of my wins (doesn't appear so since I have some nice big wins)?

There are many hands, of course, where I am losing just the blinds.
In the BB I am down $404 after posting total blinds of $1,000.
in the SB I am down $287 after positng blinds of $500.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
