Default Tilting away half my BR

So I've been playing on Stars for a while, becoming a regular at the 25PLO and 50PLO. I play for a while and play fairly standard, and then I just get these hands that just break me, and afterwards I'll just go on the worst tilt - basically being hyper-agr. This alone stops me from moving up. I'll jsut go on a nice run and net ~200, and then in 2 hours I'll just tilt so badly - esp to the a player who keeps giving me these bad beats.

I'll get the money in on the turn with the best of it and a card to come, have the person drawing to at best a flush draw or the board to pair, and at worst a 2 outer to hit their over pair to make a FH. How do you stop yourself from doing this? Here's an example of what I"m talking about. I just need help from controlling my tilt. I know, I should walk away, but whenever I do, 20 min later I go back b.c I know I should be able to take this kid down, and play super agr, even though I know I'm beat.

As I wrote this I've thought about this some, I steam really easily when a player calls a pot bet with nothing but a draw on the turn sucks out on the river. Any suggestions on pushing out the drawing hands in SSPLO?
