LOL. I know she's one of the best tourney players, but this just shows what an incredible heater she's been on! With all the juice in the pot I'd be delighted if he folded, at least not delighted for a call
Losing like this, to most of us, is such a mundane event that it inspires no anger at all.
If it DOES inspire anger in you, you've been a luck box.
Bad luck is relative, so you can tell how well a player's been running by what level of bad luck gets them angry.
I don't consider a beat "bad" unless A) my opp flopped no outs (i.e., had to go runner-runner to win) and B) called (not made) a significant bet.
Pre-AI with AK vs QJ isn't even on my bad beat radar.
I envy those who think losing to a flush draw, or losing with pre-AI overpair, is rough.
