I hate to say it, because I'm not trying to be mean, but I 100% agree.

Look at the winning players' responses in this thread. We all understand that (I'll quote JD) this:
is a bad play, not a bad beat:

The fact that he played 72s against you (after you all but begged him to) and outflopped you is irrelevant. The fact that 90% of the people here would have gone broke on this flop just like you is also irrelevant. What is relevant is that you put yourself in this situation in the first place. You claim to have WANTED him to call, but then when he outflops you and you can't get off the hand, you complain. I don't get this at all. You got what you wanted (or at least what you said you wanted when you were defending your donkey min raise). "Beats" like this are going to happen when you play badly enough to set yourself up for them. You'll be a much better player when you learn and accept that.
