No one wants to lose buy there is
one position where I can win but
how patient should I be before
my oponent gets into that position?
He also could resign.

Is chess about being nice or winning?

thanks in advance

Win! Good players are cruel! If you want to be nice to him, wait until you've checkmated him. After crushing his psyche, buy him a beer or a Bible, and tell him to call you in the morning.

Oh my goodness! I should have looked at the game first. You can't mate with one bishop! hehe

Thanks for informing us of that. It's not like that wasn't covered at least 10 times already in this thread.

I played this recently....

Game 2122998


I was offered draw after draw after draw when I was clearly winning.
So, I refused the offers and decided to queen a few pawns... 😉

...and suddenly it was a draw!!!
I'm still laughing at my stupidity.... lol

"Bishop" and "mate" can have other meanings... =)

And stalemate is not something very nice.

Too late mate, it's white to move - which he can't do. oops!

just suggesting what his move could have been. Rather than a very random pawn push. Think he's beaten himself up enough about it so I won't mention it anymore
