I usually do not like to dwell on bad beats and forget them as soon as possible, but what are the odds of this happening?

I am about midway through a MTT and have an above average chip stack for my table. I get dealt AA on the button. First position (maniac) goes all in for half my stack. I figure no brainer and call. He over turns 93. Flop comes 9 8 5 Turn 9 River 9. Oh well, at least I am still in this.

The next hand I again get AA. All limpers before me and I move all in figuring I will get one caller. I do, the player overturns 7 3. I smile, liking my chances. Flop comes 7 7 7 Turn J River Q.

What are the odds?

All I can say is that it was definitely not my night.
If you put all your faith in the river, you are up shit's creek

what kind of halfwit goes all in with 9-3?
what kind of dumbshit calls and all in with 7-3?

at least you know for CERTAIN that you did nothing wrong in these hands.
There is more to poker than life

very simple.

the first halfwit tried a blind steal and got caught.

The second was gambling or was just being a halfwit.
