That's because talking like that about an SNG tournament is stupid. You lose at most an amount that you shouldn't care about at the level you're playing in with an SNG. For MTTs it can raise questions when you get your ass kicked by a bad beat for a large lump of change.

In other words, emotions can get the best of you when that kind of stuff happens for an MTT. But for an SNG, if emotion gets the best of you about the bad beat or the money then you deserve to get flamed for it.

That's an interesting perspective. So bad beat posts are tolerated in this forum? That's great, because god knows I've wanted to post a few, but have always resisted the temptation.

I actually find it easier to take a bad beat in an MTT than an SnG. That's because I have lower expectations in an MTT. With an MTT, I expect to money some of the time. With an SnG, I expect to money all of the time. So if I play 4 MTTs and don't money, then I don't get worked up about it. But if I play 4 SnGs and don't money, I get pretty upset.
