As of recently, I've gotten into a toxic mindset that once my opponent gets into a winning position- then I automatically assume that they are cheating.
To justify this incorrect mindset; out of my recent rated/unrated games on chesscom, 3 out of 10 of my opponents were 'confirmed cheaters'. - However to rectify this assumption, I mostly play blitz; and most of the opponents that I play rapid against are hacks on the discord server that are obviously just cheating to get clout.
but.... I mostly play blitz.
and wouldn't you guess it; out of all of what 50<(?) opponents- none were cheaters, and the analysis confirms that I'm just that bad.
I go into a game, get a losing position; and instead of fighting on for a swindle- I assume the worst of opponent and throw in the towel before the game is even over.
How do I improve in my overall tenacity, become a better sport at the game, and treat a position with objectiveness?
sincerely,
ya boi
tldr; I suck at the game, and to cope- I seethe. how to not do that (?)
