Default Bad beat playing on my mind

B&M
Pot Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $1/$2
9 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG:
UTG+1:
MP:
MP+1:
Villan: $380
CO:
Hero: $350.00
SB:
BB:

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is on button with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
2 calls, <font color="#cc0000">MP+2raises to $10</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero calls</font>, 3 callers

Flop: Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ($41, 5 players)
Two checks, Villan, bets $30, Hero calls, 3 folds.
Turn: 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($101, 2 players)
Villan bets $100, Hero raises all-in to $310. Villan thinks for about 5 minutes and calls.
River: K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($630, 2 players)

Showdown:
Hero: Full house, Queens full of Kings(Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img])
Villan: Full house, Kings full of Queens(K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img])

I figure thats a 44:1 shot on the river. I think I played the hand pretty well, and I was obviously miles ahead from the flop. I just can't get the hand out of my mind though. And am thinking about giving poker a break for a while. Any suggestions?

Sorry about the layout, it was in a B&amp;M so had I'm not totally sure on the exact stacks or anything. But I must replayed this hand a thousand times in my mind, so I'm pretty sure of everything else.

I didn't actually bet the flop at all, reason being there tends to be a lot of loose calls in the game and I knew I was wither way ahead or way behind. Maybe it wasn't the best play, but I dont' think he would have laid down his overpair no matter what I did, not that I would have wanted him to up until that river.

The place I play is easy money, but that's the biggest pot I've lost and that's a lot of money to me. I know I'm better than most players there, but I dunno if I could stand this happening again. Bad beats suck.

I didn't rebuy, as I was afraid of tilting(and it was 8 in the morning).
