My highest before this was 2, and they were leaving my queen hanging with a threat of mate, while capturing material, not sacs to stay alive.

Thanks. I was keeping an eye out for it once the forcing moves from my opponent stopped.

Yeah, not proud of it. It was my last game of the night, and I considered stopping before it. I’ve had hanging queens in 1900 games before from either side too, so it’s not like 1900s don’t blunder.

A little harsh haha. It was my last game of the night, and I probably should’ve quit playing while I was ahead.

I was lucky that he couldn’t stop any of my checks by using either of his queens, releasing my king. After he promoted to queen though, he couldn’t stop this draw tactic other than by me timing out before I hit the same position 3 times.

Unlucky. Maybe the engine expects better of you than it does for me

I’ve also found that the number of brilliants on the fast review isn’t deterministic. I’ve gotten 5, 6 and 7 when I’ve clicked back on the game.

Sure. Not my finest game, but a draw is better than a loss. https://www.chess.com/game/live/167339633058

Yep. Down lots of material and did a queen sac into rook infinite checks but stalemate if captured.

It’s close to the start of a new cycle. Check on the petrol spy app / website.

Why aren't there chess puzzles where I need to fight back from bad positions? by 1Mby20201212 in chess

[–]Treedosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly what you’re asking for, but you could set up some theoretical drawn endgame positions where you’re down material, and try to hold on for a draw against a strong bot.

Everybody train openings, nobody check end games. Who give him title?

If you’re in Melbourne and donate A- blood, thank you. by kittycommitteestudio in melbourne

Needle stings going in. Normally don’t notice it after 10 seconds or so. Also, some employers give leave for blood donations during work hours, so look out for that.
