We all dream of the moment we will have the zenith of our underdog stories- when finally we are able to produce a spark.

I accomplished this when I registered my first-ever win against a titled player in the most unexpected way! This story will show you that masters too have chinks in their armor.

I found FM Renatoforf in a 10-Min Arena and knew I was in for a challenge. 

I tried an opening for the first time but was soon worse, but a sniper bishop came to the rescue.

TLDR? Here's the game!

Let's hope that this becomes a frequent occurrence now.

How did I do? Your feedback is highly appreciated, especially as this is my first post. 

Thanks for reading!

It adheres to the ancient Roman philosophy of GigaChadism.

You could try the a3 sicilian after you learn all the theory, but if you think your opening is fine, you can stick to it.

My guess is your opponent got tilted.

Dude fun stuff, I think a major reason why the titled player lost was cause of his over confidence
