Posted by Arithmajik: Ha ha, yeah. Couldn't agree more, no loss burns as bad as the one you "should've" won.
Yeah - either "should've won", OR - they should never have been in the hand in the first place - they're the ones that sting me the most.. Not so much the bad post flop play and then suck out.. But when they just should never have been in the hand - you know - calling 1/3 of the stack, out of position, with complete trash in a 4-bet pot or something. Hit their miracle, you give them a range, ruling out their ACTUAL hand and lose and.. and .. aaaah! FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUU

Ha ha ha, excellently worded Jess. I love how you can feel the rage increasing throughout the post until it finally explodes (just like real life). I can tell you're reliving the moment, and I am too, lol. Terrible eh? It especially hurts if you're near or in final table and looking forward to some really skilled and tense play.

Heh heh, ugh, it's so disappointing FT or close to it for sure. I remember I had a really good tourney once where I struggled hard to cross the bubble into the money and prizes started at $200. My next hand I got QQ and blinds were huge and my stack definitely low in comparison so natural shove. Some guy flat called with 57o (no idea why) and caught a full house. I was happy for the $200 bucks but dissapointed in the loss to, felt I'd been cheated out of some of the really intense action.

I´ve won the second place in the bmob freeroll at party poker two days ago. And i made a challenge last year and won over 100$ in a month only with freerolls. This is a good way to build a little bankroll longtime and a anti tilt education
