Yes, there is.

One example:
Don't throw the pieces around you. Not even when you're losing.

funny you say that. The first time I lost to a friend of mine (after 8 wins or something like that) I tipped my king over with the back of my hand (rather hard), it rolled off the table and the little cross thingy at the top broke off. It wasn't my set either 😳. Rather funny.

IF I am losing otb I resign a different way all the time like a tv show that comes on in my area called the simpsons they try to start different all the time but like the simpsons I ran out of ideas and started to repeat. Example I put my king in my pocket, put king in opp pocket, hand king to opp in form of a handshake and the list goes on.
