It was a Saturday afternoon, I went to a small Go class, and I played chess with Song Qingyu. The rule was to win three out of five games.
we spread out the chessboard and the war began. At the beginning, I obviously took advantage. I killed him with all kinds of tricks, and he was losing ground. When "pa, pa, pa" went down to the middle set, he was obviously defeated and could not turn the tide, so he had to throw in the towel. The second set was the same. I won two sets in a row at once.
The third set started, and my face was obviously showing arrogance. Look at the angry look of my opponent, and I was so happy. I was so proud that I didn't care about my opponent, and I didn't think about it as much as the first two sets. I went down without thinking, and I slammed it, and my territory was full of flaws, and he went straight to Huanglongfu. In the fourth set, I was unconvinced and greedy for the opponent's chess, but maybe I was eager to win, rushed and lost again. At this time, a famous saying echoed in my mind, "Win without arrogance, lose with grace" and "Win without arrogance, lose with grace". I summed up the summary and reflected on myself. I should treat every chess game with a normal heart, instead of taking it lightly once I have won.
The fifth set started, and it was the deciding set. So, I steadied my mind, settled my mind, thought of a good strategy, and purposefully attacked the other side. From the beginning to the middle set, everyone was equally divided. Later, I caught his chess tendon with a flying swallow, which led him to give up. Finally, I beat him by three to two.
although I won the game, I realized that I was on a par with him, and I would be defeated by the other side if I made a slight mistake. At the same time, I have a deeper understanding of the meaning of "winning without arrogance and losing with grace". Playing chess is like this, so should learning.
