Hearing myself being cussed out on opponent's livestream

Just had the most surreal experience ever. I was playing in the US Chess 10/0 Rapid, and played the black side of the Giuoco Piano Mason Gambit against this guy. I found a tactic, and he resigned on move 11. (see position).

Turns out he was streaming the game the whole time. After he resigned, I joined his stream, and got to hear him cussing me out to his viewers and vowing to report me. He also looked at my profile and kept saying "This is [removed]"

I wasn't offended, just found it amusing that some people are such sore losers. Can I report him for being a sore loser, I wonder? :-)

don't waste your time on a poor sport. You have more class, than your opponent ever will. It is an amusing story. what a Jerk,

You played a great game and really show why lower-rated players don’t need to play gambits unless they know all the lines—ALL the lines. A nice victory. Funny that someone could become so upset over losing a position he put himself in purposely.

You really got to him. Have fun haunting his dreams tonight!

You can report but not publicly. I don't know if anything would be done for things like that done off site though.

@Martin_Stahl did you remove the game that I shared in my original post? I felt it had to be you, since you have moderator powers. Why did you remove it? It's not everyday that I get to show off such a crushing victory :-)

Thank you for all your kind words, everyone!

It's so people can't find who your opponent was.

As per my other post, public reporting is not allowed.

well ofc you did, there's no signing of anything afterwards

Gotta love it. I just had someone play the dubious Englund Gambit against me and had the world fall down around them, and they stalled their remaining 3 minutes until I won on time. Not my fault! People watch these youtube videos pushing these gimmicky trap openings and think everyone will fall for it, but then get upset when it doesn't work.

Did your opponent mention that in his stream? lol

Avatar of siegfried23

No he didn't mention any of that. If you lose, it's never your fault anyway; it's always your opponent's, for not falling for the trap. So he had the moral high ground in that regard. :-)

I encounter the Englund surprisingly often, despite the fact that if one avoids a couple of well-known opening traps, black is simply slightly (or more than slightly, I can't remember) worse without any compensation. Someone even played it against me in a recent OTB tournament, giving me an easy win in an otherwise lackluster tournament :-)
