Well, I've just lost everything that I made yesterday off of 3 bad beats. What now ? 2 of the bad beats was from idiots who couldn't fold A K .

You want to stop losing money, the first thing is to stop assuming the other person is the idiot.
You are berating him for calling a $10 bet with a nut gut-shot (the fact its a nut gut-shot is very important, because it stands to make A LOT of money if someone else also hits a straight), and 2 over cards (ok, it happens these overcards are worthless, but he does not know this for certain), now if he can get you both to call big bets on the river should he hit, he is probably getting some implied odds, or close it it. So while yes it might not of been the best call from him, the $12 call from YOU was worse on the river.
All of which could of been avoided by a larger bet on the turn, (of at least $20), if they call then and catch, then go ahead and winge (it wont achieve anything, but if it makes you feel better), but dont winge until your first playing perfectly.
