If you give someone a really bad beat, is it wrong to...

punch the air and scream yes at the top of your voice, or should you feel a bit bad for them?

Here's a hand I played yesterday, not on sky, on another site but I'd like to hear opinions.
The blinds are at 800/1,600 with a 125 ante on a 9 handed table.
I am on the big blind with 17,000 chips, the small blind is on 11,000.
The play is folded round to the button who has 51,000 chips (after beating me in a huge hand previously). He raises 3x the BB to 4,800.
The small blind folds and I start to think about the button's range. I though he is raising as the 2 blinds were pretty short stacked and it's an easy way to pick up chips.
I push all in and he snap-calls. Oh oh I think. He turns pocket Kings and I turn the monster that is 3-4 off suit.

I flop the 4 and river the 3!!! for a pot of around 37,000.

My question is, was it wrong to cheer the win? It must have been horrible for the Kings.

Victory is sweetest when you've known defeat.
