Default how do u guys win at pokerstars?

i m really starting to hate pokerstars. i mean, i ve won 2 mtt over there, but since then theres been nothing but bad beats. i can do whatever i want, i just wont win. i ve never had such a mass of bad beats on any other site. last example: i played the double shootout to the sunday million, picked up AA on the button, the co raises all-in and i KNOW i cant call because i wont win this no matter what he has. needless to say, he wins with trip queen. two hands later, i push all-in from the small blind and lose a 10 to 1 - shot on the river. only two hand histories, but its been like that for weeks. i push with jj from the button, braindead monkey calls with 53o, of course he gets his str8 on the river. havent won aces in about 4 weeks or so.

i dont claim i m a very good player. i know, i m not. but i m just getting pissed at losing each and every 4 to 1 or 10 to 1 - shot. whatever it is, the sick beat seems unevitable.

maybe its shorterm (only switched to stars in january, played at prima with none ot that for about a year), but i really think about quitting stars.

i know how ridiculous this may sound to some or most of you. but maybe theres some others who have certain sites they just cant win at?
