Why is it that when we get bad beats by donkeys with the worst cards we just want to punch the screen and wish bad on that person, but when we're on the winning side we just laugh it off and make excuses on why we played those cards

Posted by 123yourgone: lol that's very true. poker players tend to remember the hands they lost by a bad beat.and dont remember the bad beats they give out
Very true! Reading back my HH's, I find winning hands ( and yes, some ugly ones as well ) that I completely forgot; but remembered all the badbeats
And yes, I do laugh and cheer when I win with cards that I shouldn't be playing. And I shout at my screen "eat my keyboard!", and sit out for a round. That is the adrenalin flowing, and that it is what I love about poker

I don't...usually when I give a bad beat i let out a sigh of relief, immediately followed by a self-directed tantrum about how poorly I played that hand and so and so

The people are making in so way that they forget very farst good things and dont forget the bad things. So if you dont have bad beats or minimise it just play only very good start hands.

Hello everybody! true if it be loose pre-flop is also be a donkey. It's a bit too fast as analysis. Sometimes a lack of raise with good hand is not very smart either. See you soon for new posts lol!

Yeah but thats just the way are brains are programmed i guess. If it happens to you its OK and good luck but when the shoe is on the other foot its hell, but with that said isn't that the nature of online poker? its a battle of luck Vs judgement and even then if your not on the lucky side you might as well forget it i mean if you only play the right cards all the time you can and will still loose So how can this be so .....Luck is the only thing you need for winning poker Luck will win pots and fill your pockets but we can not depend on luck all the time. So the moron is always gonna be the other players that get lucky, one mans lose is another mans gain and thats the way it will always be and thats why you dont give a s**t when you win, you dont spend any time thinking about the loosers do you....NO
those donks in which i think i belong adds up to the excitement of playing
