I try to tell people the same thing about suck outs and when people get lucky. Thank goodness they do, because otherwise bad players would never play.
We do have games where the best player always wins, we call them chess and we don't play for money. It doesn't take long for someone to figure out they will never win at chess against certain opponents, and to stop playing them. In poker, you are always thinking, "Yeah but if the river is x, I can win!"
