No, it isn't, but you are the one who MADE it dangerous by having a -20 AP end result! that means the final AP loss was in excess of 20 AP, either someone fumbled (it's not risk-FREE) or someone got desperate & bid really high. I can't offhand remember an extended contest we've had that ended under -15 or so AP. I'd say they are, in general, lacking in realistic risk.
