1) Try to find the lowest rated player who took you to school.
2) If you are pathetically low rated (like myself) post your best game against the highest rated player.
3) Post the games you feel are worth observing.

A quick search revealed this one. It was one of my first games though. 5170672 (forgot how to do the link thing).
Your opponent didn't play like a pro; you played like a monkey.

Lower rated players generally win when the higher rated player plays like a monkey. I know that when I play lower rated players I'll make stupid moves because I don't have the respect that I should.
Here's a game I won against at 1700. Good play on my part or bad play on his?

Originally posted by EladarWhen I play lower-rated players I'll make more risky moves thinking they'll miss what my plan is. Sometimes they spot it. So when playing seamingly weaker players you look like you're playing like a monkey (more often than not I'm playing like a monkey (or drunk)).

One of my worst loses against a lower rated player was in Game 2970871.
I was over confident, didn't think through the combinations and was punished severely for moving too quickly.
I leave it for you to find the very fundamental error when the game became a loss for me.
Originally posted by Dragon FireWell, at first sight, 12...Bxe5 seems like a bad move. Your position went downhill from there. 15.Nd5 would have further deteriorated your position.

Words fail me.

12. ... BXd5?? is the sort of move it is easy to make in error when one is over confident and just goes to show it is important to take every move seriously no matter how much you out rank your opponent.
im low rated right now and was still much lower rated when i beat this guy...must not have been using his engine this game, hehe. we both messed up a bit i think...
