Does not including last part make sentence different?

Does not including the last bit make the meaning of the sentence different:

- She wouldn't have been as mad if I had rung the doorbell (as if I had just walked in.)
- If she saw that I was sleeping she wouldn't be as mad (as if I was playing.)

- I wouldn't have been as mad if I had lost in 2 hours as if I had lost in 4 hours. (does this mean that I've lost?)

- I wouldn't have been as mad if I had lost in 2 hours. (this one means I've lost?)

Thank you
