ingame ploy

to send an opponent a "nice game. well played" message ingame , to get them to drop their guard and snatch a win from their grasp.

have you done it ?

I might have done it once when I was trying for a back rank mate, but thats only might so I dont know if I really have because its only a might....😀😀😀😀😀

No - someone did it to me and it worked , but I thought the person was a ****.More fool me for falling fro it.

i looked so hard. i missed taking his queen on my next move. i lost in about 10.

there was never a mate in 2.

People who do that sort of thing are scum.

This one I presume? Game 1763394

Easy enough with a new player, the other resignation in check I can see is a very obvious mate. This one looks like white should have played on.

Some time ago I've sent an intimidating SMS to my opponent during a game.
He got so distracted he lost in few moves (ans soiled his pants as bonus).

In another game I've sent sexy photos to my opponent cellphone (mm-msg) - again, distracted, lost quickly.

Muwhahahahahaha...

Haha i just had an idea for OTB.

Take a mini water gun in your pocket and spray it on his "area". Then he will be too embarrased/scared too go look at other games so will be worried and cant concentrate!!!

Haha that is funny, link to the game and maybe we can see if you did have a forced mate.

Yep there was no mate for black there.. white must play kh1 then blacks only hope for mate is on the h2 square with the other rook, so lets say black plays Rg5 with the intention of playing Rh5 the next move to threaten Rxh2#. white would just have to play Rg1 to force a trade of rooks and thus end blacks chances.
