Very true. But I guess this same thing could cause frustration to people because they would take it personally and feel bad about themselves for losing
Well, if someone can’t handle losing as a result of their own skill level, chess probably isn’t the right game for them. Unless you pick opponents below your own level, you will realistically lose about half of your games and you can’t blame it on bad luck. That’s part of the game.
For sure, I also believe that’s how one learns and gets better. But the point was that I could see why someone might be frustrated over losing in chess :)
