Taking advantage of mad players

Sort:
tnkhanh

So, today, I played this random guy on chess.com, 3|2 games. He was obviously very mad or on tilt or drunk or something. He just went after my King and then blundered some pieces. Then I just won effortlessly. I can't say he's noober than me because his rating is close to mine, just having a bad day.

The best part was he wanted rematches. So of course I took rematches, I got tons of EZZ wins and rating points!

Am I bad for doing this, taking advantage of this poor guy for some ez wins? Do you guys do this sometimes?

In your 3 games against him/her:

The first game looks pretty normal. He was winning, but he gave you time to promote.

The second game looks as if after not seeing the knight fork, he just gave up.

There was definitely something wrong in the 3rd game. He just randomly sacrificed pieces for no reason.

just use computer analysis. Basic members can analyse 1 game per week

I found out I can analyse it for you in V3. Doing it right now.

In the first game, he was completely winning. Once, he even had mate in 2. But he made a bunch of blunders(8) and soon lost.

You had:

naccuracy (?!)   5
Mistake (?)   3
Blunder (??)   4

 

 

He had:

Inaccuracy (?!) 8  
Mistake (?) 2  
Blunder (??)

8

 

 

Boyangzhao

In the second game, you both played the opening badly, having many inaccuracies there, but he made more mistakes than you in the middlegame, andso you had a +3 lead right before you forked his queen and king, and you jumped to +12.

I definitely recommend reviewing some of your games and doing tactics trainer, because you missed many tactial shots, and you gave your opponent many tactical opportunities.

Boyangzhao

After analysing your games, I think your opponent was playing worse than their rating, but I wouldn't say he/she was drunk, or mad. I can understand many of your opponents blunders, and also since the time control is blitz.

Boyangzhao

I can also understand why he/she wanted rematches, because your opponent felt like they made some stupid mistakes, and thought he/she could do better, until the 3rd game, where your opponent just gave up trying to beat you and left the game (It says you won because your opponent abandoned the game)
