Could I have played this better or was I just unlucky?

[GaF]

Here's the hand history from my last 3 hands in tonights $ Challenge. 2 out of my last 3 hands I had the nuts pre flop - and managed to get all of the money in pre flop but got outdrawn ...... Could/Should I have played it differently? How could I have increased my chances? I could have slow played it, but more opponents means increasing the chances of being outdrawn.....
