Hole cards running hot, bad beat boards, what do you do?

I know variance is a huge part of the game and I'm 100% ok with that. After playing for a couple hours, if I'm running bad or feel even a little off kilter, I'll takr a break and come back later. Doesn't bother me. We've all had those days where 27o seems to be almost every hand dealt to us.

Two nights ago I had an odd night. I was looking at TT+, AQs+, AQo+ and KQs far more often than normal. I even checked with Hold'em manager to see the hole card frequency for the session, and sure enough, definitely higher than normal for all those hands.

Seems like a dream, but almost every time I missed the flop/turn or saw a bad beat/sucked out on. I quit when I started to feel like I would start tilting.

This leads me to my question: when you guys are running hot with hole cards, but not getting what you need on the flop/turn and your all in AA/KK preflops are losing, what do you guys do? Take a break even though your hole cards are really high quality, or weather the storm?
