I played recently a game where i was completely losing (rook and knight vs queen, knight, bishop and rook) but i managed to back-rank mate, that was soo satisfying...

I played a game recently and captured their Queen, they resigned straight away, then I noticed they could have knight forked me and got my queen, making for an even game to continue.

I recently blundered a piece in a 60m OTB game. The computer said it was -7 at some point, and my opponent was rated 1900 USCF. However, I managed to win the game by restricting his pieces with 2 passed pawns on the queensside.

It happend a lot where i managed to get some well fought draws

Yes, I was down a rook a bishop a knight and a pawn against an 8 year old who was the state champion for people her age and perpetual checked her. Once I went down a rook and a pawn I sacrificed a knight and a bishop. She miss played it and I had Qh3+ Qg3+ forever.

Can you please show players name as well?

[khinkyawhtwe]

Black should move g6 and bishop to g7. Just my opinion.

Hou Yifan’s fastest victory? Has she never scholars mated anyone before? Have I accomplished something the world champion hasn’t?
