Why is cowering so rewarding for Cowards? And why do I always feel I'm being cheated.

Cowards. They stink. You know the type of player. The type who are happy to graze like a cow; who seem incapable of forming their own ideas, who sit, mouth open, waiting to be spoon fed your ideas, so they can react to them—quickly! They have no love for chess; they love only to be victor over another. Their satisfaction comes, not through a greater comprehension of the game, but from the empty flummeries of a sign which says: "YOU WIN." Good Job, kid. Uncle Morris was so wrong, when he called you a fat, useless retard of a kid. That hurt. But I'll show Uncle Morris now. Look at me now, Morris. Not so fat, and useless now. And, I scored a 160 on an online IQ Test. Only a genius like me can play chess at this level—but, let's face it. Let's come clean, and acknowledge such untermensch exist in chess community.

 

In fact, if I'm honest, they comprise a great number of mindless players, who are incapable of thinking for themselves. A love for MUH TRADE QUEEN in the heat of your attack. The reflective blocking up of the pawn structure. The unprincipled openings, which only asks: what opening are YOU planning? And how can I defend against it, until your time is spent? Yes, I'm sick and tired of it. It seems every other game I play this type. From, winning to crushing, from crushing, to dead even and, from thereon, time and the snappish moves of the reflective coward lead to my defeat. If it wasn't such an issue, damn, I wouldn't have made this thread. Asking for help. I know from my openings and middle game advantages, I should be winning more games. But no, the brick wall of an army of cowards prevents my progress! Here is the most recent game. I ask, very humbly, for suggestions on how to deal with these.... untermenches.

Just in case this is not trolling... there is not 'should be' in chess.

Maybe start by posting the game you are asking for advice on? Just a thought...

The game is right there, I posted a miniature of it. Upgrade your browser, eh? Just a thought.

You lost against the Hippo, lol.

My apologies. The game did not appear originally, but is there in all its glory now

4.5/10 for troll value.

Obvious trolling, but it's ironic that someone who doesn't play a book opening is accused of being "incapable of forming their own ideas".  Isn't that more in line with someone who just mindlessly memorizes theory?

All this because you lost a game in Live Chess??

It's more like a fight being scheduled, between 3-4pm and the kid stays in his house until you tire of knocking. And comes suddenly comes out at 3:58 when you are all spent. Little coward rat.

I was told one time here to learn from my losses...and move on.

I can't thank you enough, catdogorb. Your contributions are well worth a few hours of study. Despite all the spiel, I really desire to improve. I should drop all this coward stuff, and learn from better players. I still have a lot to learn, and I thank you for taking the time to share your games, and to annotate where exactly I went wrong. At times, it feels I am cursed with bad luck. But with good strategic knowledge, these cowards (uhum, defensive players) shall be vanquished. Thanks, friend.

You have a ways to go in your overall understanding of chess, but you may want to look at the way Bobby Fischer with his classical style handled Tigran Petrosian with his subtle positional style.  No one ever called Petrosian a coward (I don't think), but many claimed he didn't take chances and always kept the draw in hand while he was World Champion.  Yet, an attacker like Garry Kasparov wrote an appreciative introduction to the book, Petrosian's Legacy.

Never heard the saying- "All's fair in love and War?"

wasn't a variation of the hippo played by Botvinnik?

Well you would cringe, if take you things out of context and have the reading age of a 4 year old.

I'm done with this site anyway. I've dropped from 1471 in Blitz to 1263 in the space of a 1-2 weeks, because chess.com admin have been pooling my seeks with fake, (bot players); known cheats, or masking my opponent's true rating (with a low one) every time I log on to play. This is to punish me, for speaking out against cheats, and for creating a volume of reports. I can only laugh as I log in each morning, to find 1200s slamming of perfect moves, and ending 5 minute games, with only 1 minute spent. The better, I play the better the bot plays. And, if I make a mistake, the bot will allow a few inaccuracies on its side. This conspiracy is designed to decimate my rating, and absolutely crush my spirit. I expect most will take this as the rambling of a paranoid schizo, so I will just leave it at that. My game history is evidence enough.

I find weird the way OP ignores some reasonable posts. He looks to be in denial.

 

(please, don't answer this post. I don't follow this kind of thread. bye!)
