Default The Ultimate Bad Beat at 1/3 NL Tables at The Wynn Las Vegas

I just came back from Las Vegas in total shock from what happened to me at the poker tables.
It was my first visit to Las Vegas after being 21.
I had been playing regularly at the 2/5 NL tables at an Indiana casino before I went to Las Vegas.
On Sunday, August 27th it all happened.

I had just bought into the 1/3 NL table for $200 about a half hour before. I made it a point to play tight since my aggresive play from the previous day had not worked and earlier this day I had suffered another horrendous beat which I will explain later. I was at $214 dollars when I got dealt pocket aces on the button. The person who was 2 seats before me raised the BB to 15 and the next guy called. I reraised to 51. Everyone folded to the inital raiser who put me allin. Of course I called. He had pocket aces and I had pocket kings. Flop comes K, low card, low card, turn comes A, river comes K. My trip aces got busted by quad kings. I wanted to know if anyone knew the odds of trips losing to quads like that cause I have played thousands of hours online and hundreds of hours at live tables and have never seen anything like that.

While that was my worst beat, earlier that day I had pocket aces and a stack of 430. Other guy with about 300 had AK suited. At 1/3 NL tables I raised to 21 which got 2 callers. Flop came K73 rainbow. I bet out 50 after the flop and the guy with AK went allin. I thought about it for awhile and did not think he would go allin with the set so I called his allin. He showed his AK and turn comes a K and river a blank. The guy who sat next to him said he folded a K so the case king beat me there too. These beats cost me over 500 dollars. Overall, from this day and the previous day I had lost 1200 dollars and dont know how I can recover from these beats.
I am back at college now and still thinking about how I dont lose all my money from those 2 hands I lost with.
