what are some under-rated opponents that you've faced?

Game 5743862

*walks past whistling innocently"

including provisionals?

lots of underrated provisionals.

Well I just walloped at blitz by a 1360 player - took too many
liberties - (underestimated him) - lad played well though so have
no excuse.

wow....underrated...you flatter me

Sandbagging is going into lower rated tournements not resigning or losing on time with all his games, so unleess he has done that he isn't a sandbagger.

I have, it's true.

The 2009 Championship.

Clearly were I graded my true grading they wouldn't let me in.

Don't worry, no offense taken.

You can't help your ignorance.

How many of those did I complete?

I would do a lot better if I didn't have any perspective on how good an opponent is or is not. If I see someone is rated a lot lower I tend to be quite a bit less careful. This is not a good practice when playing chess.
