I just finished this game a few minutes ago.

It's Me VS Chessmaster 8000. Chessmaster is on highest level. It's a 5 minute 3 second increment game.

I missed a draw !!!



Simply 25.Qf3+ draws (or better depending on black)

25.Qf3+ Ke6 26.Qg4+ Kf7 27.Qf3+ etc.

Here's how the game went.



Overall it is a pretty brutal beating. hehe

I tried to make it as sacrificial and wild as I could.

It's a shame I missed that draw. 🙁

I played a really nice queen sac in this one.

The best part is it works !!!
Are there strong players on FICS? Haven't been there for a while but how many 1800-2200 and 2200+ are there online? In the hundreds or a dozen or so?

Unfortunately, there aren't all that many any more.

Everyone flocked to ICC, I think.

It's a shame too.
