Default Disaster in a $5,50 MTT

Tell me if this is not the single worst ten hand streak you've ever seen.

2 1/2 hours in, blinds at 400/800 antes 50 w/ t31000.

Brought to a new table, here are hands:

82o
94o
AJo
55
AKs
AKo
AJo
AQo
AQs
94o
56s
AKs

I Think you know that since I'm writing this post, I'm somewhat upset that this streak of hands caused a -31k chip swing. What's more, I was never worse than I coin flip when I got it in. Should I have been more patient or was I right to push these preflop with a big stack?

Thanks for letting me vent...

A coinflip= 50/50 not 45/55, etc
So when you go all in with AJ-AK, etc against a pocket pair, you are in fact worse than a coin flip. Please don't lie in BBV.
