Of course I have negative emotions when I lose. Who wouldn't? Having gone to parimutuels for most of my adult life (and losing far more than winning), there are certain things that don't change- more or less, two out of three favorites lose and the average bettor will lose between 15%-25% of his money over the long haul if he is just an average handicapper (which I am). Taking that into account, I would bet my number and sit back and enjoy the show, but never cursing players for poor play. That's just the way it is, Bada, for me.
