Default Getting all in with the worst of it

I have been a winning NL player for about 10 months and have worked my way up to 2/4 (400 max) no limit where i play primarily online (about half 2/4 and half 1/2)
This is not a bad beat post this is an I suck lately post
I play tightly preflop but am very agressive post flop
I play my sets, trips fastly most of the time especially with any type of draws out there, but Ill play a monster draw on the same board the same way.
Lately I have been getting my money into big pots with 30-35% equity which is costly.

For example the last 8 times Ive reraised all in with tp and a flush draw I was against a set, 3 of the last 4 oesfd have been against sets and my sets have been getting pumbled to flopped straights and flushes and all of the sudden freaken oversets.Ten minutes ago i played king 9 suited on the button and the flop came 10 j q. The cutoff limped in with ak. There was a maniac who went all in 9 times out of 30 flops and he did it when I had red aces on an all diamond flop and he had flopped the flush.Its sicken watching 2 retards get all in on a j 10 ace flop with ace 8 and ace 4 only to have jj on that flop 5 minutes later to see somebody has kq.
Is this just shitty luck (flopping second best hands a lot) or am I doing something wrong? I truly can not remeber a string this long of getting my money into huge pots with the worst of it.
