So this just happened to me twice within 3 hands on the same table, against 2 different villains.

I usually always try to setmine using the 20x rule.

10NL full ring.

Hero limps UTG with 9Heart 9Club (maybe this was outright a bad move?)
Folds to BTN
BTN (VP22/PFR0) limps
SB (32/32) raises 4x BB
BB folds, Hero calls, BTN folds

Flops Q59 all Spade

Villain checks, Hero makes pot bet, villain calls.
Turns JDiamond
Villain checks, Hero makes pot bet, villain calls.
Rivers 2Heart
Villain makes 50% pot bet, Hero calls for roughly 2/3 of remaining stack.

Villain wins A high flush.

The second hand:

Villain (21/21) raises UTG to 4x
Hero/CO calls 3Heart 3Diamond
BTN (100/25) calls
Flops 5K3 all Spade

UTG bets 75% pot, Hero calls, BTN calls
Turns 7Diamond
UTG bets 50% pot, Hero calls, BTN calls
Rivers JDiamond
UTG bets 33% pot, Hero calls, BTN calls

UTG wins A high flush.

On the second hand I saw I flopped a set AGAIN with a suited flop AGAIN, and immediately my gut just sank. Maybe I was tilting or something but there was no way I thought that would happen again.

I was ready to fold if I saw the board 4 to a flush, but obvisouly it didn't. In both cases I figured they were just value betting/ check calling.

Is there anyway I could have gotten away from either of these?
