Hell no, Hoss. Losing to a person who got extremely lucky is better than losing to a person who played smart. Not only did the WINNER just get lucky on me, but I didn't get outplayed by my opponent. That would piss me off even more.

I have to completely agree with Aequitas here. The hands that piss me off the most are the hands that I lose by getting outplayed. If I lose a big hand to a lucky river card I know that I outplayed my opponent and he needed luck to help him win the hand. The hands where I lose a big pot because I got outplayed are the hands that I walk around thinking about what I did wrong for the next week.

You can say Lou... Aequitas is a pain in the ass to write.

Well...same old thing: In the long run, bad players will lose money. So you hold KQ and he holds 75? He will outdraw you fairly rarely, and the times he does win justify to him to keep playing it...but the majority of the times youll win, and thus come out ahead. Just keep your bankroll high enough to sustain the beats.

kinda agree
guess i kinda agree with both i do hate when i get outplayed but that rarley happens not saying im the greatest or anything but since i mainly just play quality and not junk its kinda hard to outplay someone with the best hand. like my new article i wrote i could give you tons of examples where i lost 80 dollars all to river draws. But if you did get outplayed i can see where that can be agravating as heck.

personally i would prefer to get outplayed than rivered... getting rivered is out of my control, but getting outplayed is something that i can avoid in the future if i keep improving my skill, and theres no one to blame but myself, so i really dont have a problem with it.... or maybe im just saying that because it rarely happens and its easy to deal with getting outplayed every once in a while, and it isnt easy to deal with getting rivered several dozen times in one session.

Well, you say "it's ok to get outplayed everyonce and a while vs. getting rivered several dozen times in one session..." well shit, I definitely agree w/ this. But this isn't the original comparison because you changed *how many* times each occurance would happen.
I, during the course of one session, would either (i) get outplayed once, or (2) get rivered once ... which would I choose? Get rivered. So the other guy gets lucky: at least I played outstanding poker.

of course i would also but in general wouldnt you rather lose to someone playing smart then lose to someone that had no buisness in the hand getting lucky with terrible pot odds?
