Default This just happened and I\'m setting myself on fire

So, I fold preflop with the A8 and flop comes 888, then ten minutes later this happens (no BBJ on Stars)

Poker Stars, $0.50/$1 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 5 Players
LegoPoker Hand History Converter

SB: $106.85
Hero (BB): $131.30
UTG: $125.55
CO: $97.45
BTN: $73.10

Pre-Flop: 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (BB)
2 folds, BTN calls $4, SB folds, Hero calls $3

Flop: ($8.50) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, BTN checks

Turn: ($8.50) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $10</font>, BTN calls $10

River: ($28.50) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $60</font>, BTN calls $59.10 and is All-In

Results: $146.70 Pot ($3 Rake)
Hero showed 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (a straight flush, Seven to Jack) and LOST (-$73.10 NET)
BTN showed K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (a straight flush, Nine to King) and WON $147.70 (+$74.60 NET)

Dear noob with world's worst avatar: this is BEATS, brags, and variance. Please commiserate with me w/o snide comments (which are completely foreign to BBV). I had a straight flush and lost. Not only do I lose my stack, but if Stars has a BBJ, I'd have 2 or 3 hundred grand.

Why didn't you play that hand on a BBJ table?

Yesterday I made a straight flush on the river to beat villains flopped quad 9's and all I could think about was how sad I was that full tilt didn't have a BBJ.
