Well I am sure they are upset about it. I have seen some players outright lose it when they get knocked out. But since they are on television most players will just calmly walk out all dignified. That night they are probably hating themselves for a stupid mistake they made.

No they do not need those. They are very experienced players who can take the risk and play large amounts of money without feeling that they are losing their life savings if they happen to walk away with nothing.

Most players know that they are being watched so they might be controlling their emotions. So they might be holding back for time to be alone and think about what went wrong.

If you watch long enough and throughout enough games you can still normally catch on to subtle little signs that every player will give off at one point or another. Learn from those to read their hands.

I am sure that they probably sit up all night wanting to kick themselves if they could for losing the way they did. They just do not show emotions at the table because they are on camera often.
