Default When the Bad beats get to you...

I was just 4 tabling SnG's and managed to get sucked out on
3 all-ins.

5 handed shortest stack on table but still fairly close to everybody. Raise all in post flop after standard 4x raise preflop with a what looked to be harmless Kxx flop.
I had a set of K's get dropped to runner runner straight.

1 minute later...

4 handed (3rd place in chips)
I had a guy from SB complete a 5x blind, AcQh3h flops i have Ah9h, he checks i push it in he has me covered by 25, flips over Qs3s IGNH.

3 Minutes later...

4 Handed 2nd highest stack at table, blinds 75/150.

I pick up KQo in the BB, Button Limps, I raise to 3x bb, button & chip leader calls me, flop comes rainbow KQ2, I push a pot bet out, he thinks for about 10 seconds and calls. Rag on the turn completes the rainbow, I check to him, he bids like 1/3rd the pot, i shove it all in, he thinks about it and calls and turns over A2s, he rivers the 3rd duck.

I manage to salvage a 2nd place on my 4th table, No bad beat story for it.

For all the people who play full time, how do you stay collected after a string of such plays. Do you walk away from the machine, or do you just live with the "I made the right play".

What do you do?....
