Any cures for the Bad Beat Blues?

I encourage you all not to read this. I just need to complain for a minute.

i've had an ugly night, and i'm not talking about the CC event at pokerstars. even though i got knocked out there when my J's were cracked by 9's on the river, at least i know untimatly i lost out to good players. i was actually quite impressed by the talent level. everytime i bluffed someone was bound to raise me. but that's okay.
anyway, after i got knocked out i figured i'd keep playing for awhile, a couple cheap tournies, heads up match and a ring game, only to have aces cracked 3 times, and never by my opponent catching a set with a lower pocket pair, but by highly improbable runner-runner suck outs for straights. whenever i had a straight, it was the sucker end. whenever i had a full boat, someone had a better one. finally i had to sit down at the micro limit stud hi/low table just to mellow out for awhile. now i'm trying to watch The Incredables, but the reception sucks and i don't have any !

okay, there's my feeling sorry for myself post. if anyone read this, my only question is, Do you know any cures for the bad beat blues? cuz all i can think of is to bang my head against the wall, or drink a six pack, and i know neither will do any good. okay, that's it.....

Blow off some steam at play money tables!

Or learn Omaha. After bubbling/donking out of the Stars event I went and played some and promptly won about $20 in an hour and a half of 2-tabling .25/.50 despite the fact I was borderline tilting. Fun.

Thank you Mr Malorkus! Took your advice about Omaha and caught quad kings on the first hand. only won a couple bucks so far, but definatly put me in a good mood

Nate, I know you've had a bad evening but that's no reason to denigrate the healing powers of beer. Keep the faith!

South Park, Monty Python and The Three Stooges.

Scotch generally works for me, at least temporarily...

Four Dogs is spot on. Comedy's the ticket.
