Be an annoying winner (5)

I believe the answer is:

gloat

(Other definitions for gloat that I've seen before include "Take malicious satisfaction" , "Look triumphant" , "Smugly look on another's misfortune" , "Crow over" , "Show malicious smugness" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate.
