Game 1578924

Was I correct in accepting the draw that was offered to me? Could I have somehow pulled out a win?

Yes, you only had perpetual check. Otherwise white seems to have a forced mate.

You had a nice position up till move 34...Qd3+. You should have played Qg1+ instead. Move 24 gave white a forced mate in six.

All thanks to Fritz, yes I am lazy.

You were lucky, as 35.Kh4 wins for white (in addition to earlier missed opportunities).

You joined this RHP site on 8 November 2005 and are yet to make a move.
Yes you indeed are very lazy 🙂 😉
