a bad beat on many players is a key that separates them from being a winning player and a player loser, seems like a silly thing but it is key and important to learn to control our state after receiving a bad beat, not I say that they enjoy, would be masochistic, surely no one likes to lose a hand in this way but what if you need to work psychologically while playing poker is to monitor your condition after receiving a bad beat. Most losses from a losing player is not in a bad beat but in the hands after this bad beat where the head spend many things, including fast recover the lost love, play with anger to stay thinking that hand , which creates a large change in the way they play and meet each of their hands and instead of losing a box for that bad beat hands ligand finished following one AJ, linking the J on the flop and another box leaving more in the hands of rivals after all in on the flop and never mind what can happen after that hand if we do not control us and keep playing in the state, most likely break or throw us several more boxes of the same way.

it is a point of view. a bad beat is only a hand you lost, nothing more.
you should keep in mind that everybody play to win and many times you could lose.
You cannot win when you want to.

I absolutely agree with this, no madder how many bad beats you have, if those were really a bad beats not coin flips or small favorites, you still be winning in a long run, so dont be mad, or dont get tilt..
many times i get kicked with AA, it is frustrating, specially when you could have made the money but it happens, it happened to me that i kick AA with a worse hand almost as many times, it is poker, it is life, don't let this get into your head!!!

Agree with DrazaFFT. Bad beats happen, but the most important part is to move on and avoid tilt. Accept that there's nothing you can do, accept that bad beats are also part of the game.
Today I've lost with AA against very loose player with J7. It happens. I'd still make that call again. Sometimes donks get lucky. To be fair, just the other day I won with A7 against other players' AA. So sometimes it's you who gets lucky. It's important to remember these times and stick with your game. If you feel like you're tilting, it's better to take some time off.
