Frustration

I played about 4 hours today. It seems like I've been running bad for a really long time. I'm fighting hard but I just don't seem to be hitting many hands with suited connectors and small pairs. I've also been taking an inordinate amount of bad beats, hands like this:

Dealt to GnightMoon [ 6s, 7s ]
gamblegambel folds.
lastochka777 folds.
kerpowski raises (70) to 70
dnj1958 folds.
GreatWent folds.
sacar folds.

EPENTHESIS folds.
GnightMoon calls (50)
** Dealing Flop ** : [ Qs, 6c, 3s ]
GnightMoon checks.
kerpowski bets (165)

** Dealing River ** : [ 2s ]
** Summary **
EPENTHESIS balance $0, lost $1000 [ 7h 6c ] [ high card king -- Kd,Th,9s,7h,6c ]

One do-not-try-this-at-home ill-advised belligerent bluff:

Dealt to GnightMoon [ Td, 9c ]

** Dealing River ** : [ 5d ]
GnightMoon bets (2064)
GnightMoon is all-In.
SexyMelissa folds (but only after thinking till there were 3 seconds left on the timer)

I fought back after the bad beat (and a couple others) but doomed myself by overplaying KK on a J9x flop. I am pissed off both at my luck and a couple hands that I should have played better.
