Real Chess Players......

Real chess players don't abandon games and lose on time because they're down material. Some players need to "suck it up" and resign like a man.

Real Chess Players......

....firmly believe in faint hope. The fainter the hope the better.

'It is better to have faint hope and lose than to have no hope at all.'

I wish I knew who said this first,
"I had the perfect plan, but he made all the wrong moves. " 🙂
