do you guys get angry when you lose?
Sort:
If so what do you do? I'll be honest I sometimes call the other player a cheater out of frustration, but that's only if I been on a bad streak. It still isn't a good reason. Sometimes people reply. It makes me sad because I'm not good. When I suddenly get a winning streak I get happy, and start thinking I'm getting better. Then suddenly bam I get destroyed and it starts all over again.

My last tournament, I got very angry. But I was angry at myself. I suddenly became blind or something. I was making such stupid errors, the kind of errors that I felt I should not be making at my stage of chess development. It was like I was totally wasting my time playing that way. I was freaking mad!!! Even now I don't feel I really have an answer for it. It's as though my mind conspired against me and simply didn't want to play chess at all. Maybe it was my subconscious. Maybe I was simply sick of chess and didn't really want to play. If that is true I suppose there is nothing I could really do about it. I have a tournament in a couple days--I hope that is not the case now!
