What are the advices for adjusting to bad beats? Yesterday, I was playing 5/10 and I was dealt pocket 6s(6s6h). Someone raised utg 6 times the blind with AKo(AcKh) two people called, I was small blind, I called because I had over 500 dollars worth of chips. Flop came out Kh 6c 7c. I hit my set while my opponent hit his TPTK(Top Pair, Top Kicker). I checked from small blind. Guy with AKo raises to 100 dollars, one guy called, I reraised all in slightly over 400. Person with AKo called while one of the callers folded because I squeezed him. Turn and River were both clubs. I lost to running flush.
I took a break and re-buy in different table for 300 bucks in 5/10. I was dealt pocket 9s. I was in middle position and one of other middle positions raised with pocket Aces 5 times the blind. I called. Flop came out 9c 2s 5h. I was kinda relieved because they were all different suits and I won't be facing runner flush like last table unless someone had two same suits in their hand. He was overbetting his overpair by raising 10 times the blind. I smooth-called. During turn, 2h came out, giving me a boat(full house). He raised me 15 times the blind which puts me all in. I instant-called. He hits his Ace on the river.
As I was walking out of casino, I literally kicked lot of trash bins out there. I also wanted to kill both of my dealers. I think I have mental problems. I honestly don't think I made any wrong plays. Some people might criticize my pre-flop play but as for flop-river play, I think I played everything perfectly. I couldn't sleep last night and I still can't get over these ridiculous back to back bad beats that happened within less than 2 hours yesterday. My bankroll is solid but I cannot get over this bad beat. What are some advices for relieving bad beats? I am to the point where I want to destroy the essence and game of poker or murder the dealers. I am sorry if I'm freaking everyone in this forum but as for my emotions for facing bad beats, that's how I feel right now.
Anyone wanna give some advices on how to manage bad beats?
