Only the wins I find interesting. (Just imagine I post here all my losses...;)

I risk nothing at all: no fame and fortune. If I lose, I lose, not a big deal,
I simply start another game (or not). No tension at all, I pour myself a glass
of red wine, listen to my favourite Miles Davis CD and relax. A GM plays for
money and for his/her good reputation, thousands will analyse all his/her moves
etc....

I am reasonably sure that GMs wins a lot of games in private.

 Last but not least what is your

My Hungarian rating was 2127 when I stopped OTB play in 2000.
