Just wanted to share something to cause some "Schadenfreude".
I was mentally drained yesterday and made some bad moves, but this one is just the icing on the cake.
My thought process:
Well... let's just develop my bishop and put a rook on b8...what about f6?...No the bishop it is...Maybe I should first put the rook to see where his queen is going to...the next 5 seconds:
submit gloriously -> facepalm -> resign gloriously

I think the big mistake here was resigning. The guy is rated 1300, there's a good chance he will blunder too.
Take a look at this game your opponent played just a few months ago Game 12220537
You got a draw against @Aspasia so you ain't bad!
Only advice, double check everything before clicking submit... no need for eagerness.

You're completely right. But somehow I don't like playing chess after such an outrageous blunder, hoping my opponent blunders too.
Actually I didn't respect my opponent's chess ability and blitzed my move. Maybe losing the game in such an embarrassing way was a very good punishment for my arrogant attitude.
Originally posted by @64squaresofpainThat's a very good advice, I almost always do blunder-check my moves, but as I said I was mentally exhausted yesterday and in addition I was somewhat arrogant in this game.

Similar thing for me recently, but I blame it on trying to make a move while listening to my wife going on and on about something.
I played my king one move early.
Originally posted by @laskerianChess is played on a razor's edge, or a house of cards. At least thats how it feels to me.
yeah, this happens when you change the move order at the last moment without thinking.
Originally posted by @laskerianI am that way too. Being too arrogant will get you every time.
