    Game 14675858



    I do not know my opponent. When it became apparent that he was not going to resign despite overwhelming odds, I decided to see how many Queens I could get without accidentally stale-mating my opponent.

    9 is legal, so I have to believe someone has come close to 9, if not all the way there.

    It would tough to get 9. You would have go through a
    whole game without losing or exchanging a pawn.

    There are a few 6's and 7's on here and of course players
    taking extra Queens and unwittingly stalemating their opponent.

    And then there is; H.Wilkie - R.Togneri Scottish Open 1967

    Togneri needs just a ½ point to be the outright winner. A Wilkie win would produce a three way tie.

    Wilkie wins a piece at move 28 and requests that his opponent resigned. (I assume so they can get on
    with the tie break) Togneri refuses and quickly drops another piece.

    The game continues, the Queens come off and Wilkie, as a joke or maybe slightly miffed passes up a few forced mates
    and proceeds to promote three pawns to have 3 Queens on the board. I think you can guess what happened next.


    Final position. White has just played 79. Qd7-b7.

    Stalemate and Richard Togenri was the outright winner.

    That’s an amazing story. The stalemate is the ending he wanted to get that essential half point.

    For some players, that ending would have led to fisticuffs!
    Guess it serves him right.

    Both players in the wrong.

    The loser should have resigned long before and the player who promoted like that is disgracing the game.

    I still would have watched though 🤔

    Canada isn't big on Chess unfortunately 😕

    In the States it was big. I used to go to 2 weekend tournaments a year and club play.

    Canada sucks.
