What is your worst.................win. I mean the game where you have been totally dominated... dropped piece after piece .... found your king languishing in no mans land..... and...

you pull out a miracl!

Its even better if there is a significant point difference.

So... are you brave enough?... show us your UGLY side.

Actually, he could have won on move 64. I guess I got lucky that he drawed it.

This is my ugly win. I had been outplayed near all game long. All I had were a few checks. I was desperate.... and got lucky.

 I was in a completely losing position here, but my opponent decided to go after two extra pawns instead of defending form my threat and I ended up winning.
