Win like you expect to win again. Gloating is what people do when they think it was a fluke.

REFLECTION
How someone behaves after a win says what they privately believe about it. A person who expects to be here again has no need to squeeze the moment for everything it holds; the celebration is warm and then it is over. Loud gloating is usually insecurity in costume, a suspicion that this might have been the only one.
Enjoy the result fully and then turn toward what is next without a performance. Say something generous about whoever you beat, and mean it. The habit costs you nothing now and matters enormously the first time you lose.
Which victory did you celebrate like it might never repeat?
Free, with nothing to buy inside it.
