Bullet Trick Actually Works lol

So I recently saw a "hustler trick" that iKeemstar posted. 

This was a pretty horrific bullet game (even by bullet game standards) that I played, and I was just completely lost, so I tried this last-ditch trick, and it actually worked!

We had like less than 10 seconds left after the queen trick, so it was just a time scramble after that, and I timed him out.

lol the goal was just to prevent checkmate. Because I had no way of avoiding mate other than that, I think.

Bullet breeds mistakes. Victories are typically pretty hollow.

Bullet isn't chess. It's more of a video game actually.

Conscious use of opponent contingent blindness. I've been using this kind of play since 1989...

Opening could of been played better, 4...c5, I know its not the pirc but the sicilian defense is better than an inferior position, maybe a tricky 4...c6 to explore the dark squares. Even in bullet ones must train to expose passive opening, 4.d3 is so passive it needs to be punish. There is a trend even otb games to avoid playing aggressive, I seen 1800 uscf player playing passive moves and thinking they can have a playable game, it needs to be punish; I get this a lot in chess.com, maybe I post some games were I punish players for their passive play. I still like your little trick, this is old trick even otb blitz game.
