It's a downswing, it happens. That's why bankroll management is most important. If you're playing 5nl you should have at least $100 in your bankroll to protect against downswings like that. There is nothing better you can do than get all your money in with the best hand. Over the long run when your luck turns around for the better, you will profit immensely by playing the same way.
Here's a very general, badly estimated example. Let's say you lose those 6 buy-ins ($30) over a month, all due to losing when you had the best hand. Keep playing the same way, and if you start getting incredible luck the next month, you will likely gain 20 buy-ins ($100) the second month. Over 2 months, your luck seems to have evened out somewhat, but you have gained 14 buy-ins ($70) because you kept getting your money in with the best of it.
