which is that one bad move you made that changed the entire match and you regret ?

In this position I was white and in spite of my opponent having a bishop I am totally winning. I've played 2 poor moves in the last few moves according to the engine and could have totally wiped him out if I hadn't made those but in this position I should still win, a simple hxg4 leaves me too many pawns too advanced for him to cope with.

But I decided to pin his bishop and follow up with f7 but totally overlooked that my opponent can play Rf3+.

Just a simple hxg4 and I'm covering f3 and he's totally tied up and I'm totally won.

Here is one that went the other way. I am white and it is black to move. I am a minor piece down and my king is under attack but I do have a threat of my own.

My opponent has many moves, Qf8 works and my position is rather hopeless.

However my opponent played Qf7?? after which I hit him with Nxd6+ and he promptly resigned.

Once was exchange up six months ago, in state scholastic championship. Piece and pawn up, but if you looked at position then you would know that I was very unlucky. If I had won, I would have been in third place, but I got a draw since my king had no cover, even though many pawns existed! 

that is so sad . keep trying buddy you will beat some other championship

That was when the 1% luck existed
