This one, I particularly like, the game begun with an initial blunder on my part to lose my rook but I managed to retrieve the situation:
Game 2359105

The following one is an absolute disaster, I think I was drunk when I made the final move but it was still unforgiveable...

That was a fantastic rook sacrifice. However, you won not because of a blunder by your opponent but because of a great move on your part.

Sometimes it pays to play until the last move, even if the position is a lost one.
Miracles might happen.
