I did this on yahoo once, when I was a kid
Worst/Embarrassing Games
Sort:
I beat a weird kid at my school three times in a row with that exact checkmate all three times... it took less than a minute :)
Once, before I had broken 2000 barrier (1912 I think) I played these 2 games IN THE SAME TOUNAMENT! In both I played horribly, was practically lost after 12 moves or so, and in both blundered into a mate in one! It was quite embarrassing.

All I can say is "Ouch." But what do you think of me throwing away a win with that horrible g6 move?
Do you have any game where you were very embarrassed because you blundered in a clearly won or winning game, or you just played at a level way under your rating? If so, post the game here. I'll start it off...
