Wow, you're awake? Why? I noticed a normal for you post on Kit's site from 3:30am PT.
Backgammon is more aggravating because there are bigger "bad beats" in bg.
Poker is more aggravating because the "bad beats" tend to be more decisive. They also seem to come more often, but in reality if one keeps the same definition in both games they don't, it only seems that way because we have a higher standard in bg for what we moan about (in general).
Poker is more aggravating because it can be boring as shit, while bg things are constantly changing and your mind keeps facing something new (and playable).
Backgammon is more aggravating because it is much harder to get a game at decent stakes online (or offline too I suppose, depending on where you live).
Backgammon is less aggravating because when you lose making the best plays you can Snowie (or gnu) them and know for your self, or prove to others, that your play kicked ass over the eventual winning play.
