Default Is it just me or...

Does anyone else go to read some of the 'bad beat' stories, but as soon as they see the stakes were less than, say 10/20, they just exit the screen? Something about someone taking a bad beat and losing out on a $15.00 pot just doesn't make me feel bad for them

I'll read the cash game beats, but I'm not totally interested in SNG or Tourney beats.

I think you are just a results oriented nit.

I on the other hand (classical music playing) peruse BBV to view statistical anomalies!

Might be just you, if $15 is 7BB then it sucks just as much as $150 in 10/20, that's umm... called bankroll/bets/relativity.

I don't care about anything usually in a sympathy way, more of like a

WHAT THE [censored] kind of way.

Low stakes bad beats is lame. However, seeing a hand capped every street and having villain turn over 7 high is hilarious at any stakes.
