So I guess I just like sharing my awful moves. I was fresh off a bullet session and I just looked at the position and played a move. Didn't realize the major problem until a second after confirming. Oh well.

I've done that on a regular basis throughout my chess career πŸ˜‰
I'm terrible at speed chess.
Come to think of it I'm terrible at
regular chess too.

One bad move does not make you a bad player.

Yup, I too once blundered my queen away, against a 1500 player. Oversights happen.

A while ago, I won an unjust victory when my opponent made a similar mistake. My position seemed objectively lost (albeit with some drawing chances).

I'd rather win than lose in this manner, but in neither case is it a satisfying way for the game to end.
