I have found exactly the same in Live games, I ran a Poker League for my local pub for over 6 years and one of our regular players qualified for the Regional Finals and finished 2nd and Qualified then for the National Finals which they play every 12 months He went out first hand in that game.
The point is one night we had a person turn up at our Local Pub game and when he saw me setting out the tables and chips etc, he asked if anyone was allowed to play, "of course" I said "We run a League System but all the buy-ins go out in the prize pool at the end of the night, we don't make any deductions for the League"
He registered for the game, paid his buy in and was unfortunate to be seated at the same table as our Finalist, During a hand early on they were involved in the same hand, and our Finalist said to him "You do realise who you are up against here?" "I'm a National player" The stranger looked at me and said "what is he going on about"
I explained that he had made the Regional Finals then Qualified for the National Final  but don't worry he went out first hand in the Nationals, We all had a laugh about it, all except the Finalist, and when the hand was over the stranger took him out with 2 pair against his single pair of Aces, We laughed all the more.
The morale is "Do not blow your own Trumpet" No matter how good you think you are, there will always be someone better!

When the fun Stops, STOP!
