    I have a man that I am playing and he keep checkmating 10 moves in a row and it was a lost game for him. Sould he keep checkmating, resign or just let the game go as it was? I would like your help in this matter.

    I think you mean "checking' Laughing

     

    Sometimes its right, if he'll manage to repeat position 3 times or keep checking you for 50 moves, than it's draw. Otherwise... he can try at least!

    I think you mean checking, not checkmating, and the guy should keep checking you until you realize that there is no way to win and call it a draw. However, if there is a way to get him to stop checking you, without losing, you should take that option over drawing (because you said that it is a lost game for him).

    Perpetual check is a draw. Either find some way to stop him from checking you or if you can't stop him, offer the draw and get it over with.

    I found it...

    http://www.chess.com/echess/game.html?id=6595032

    the checks start at move 23 and they are currently at 40

    Oh and Immortal, his checks saved him from checkmate because it allowed him to reach a better position

    That is what chess is about...

    Good game

    and it is not clearly won, he is actually going to check mate u in a couple moves if he plays it right.

    You should have focused more and not got carried away

    same thing as what i said

    You jumped to conclusions

    What u thought was unfair and rude play was actually a startegy which ended up beating you

    I agree with redhotman he was not delaying the game he was forcing you to move your King away from your support or coverage to gain a better position on you. From what I saw on your game he has forced you to move your King to the point that you are just 2 or 3 moves from being check mated. Which, is a good tactic to check mate you or have you resign.... Sorry. But, that is what chess is ALL about. Consentrate on the game and not how many times you have been in check.

    Good Luck..

    Guys... Game isn't ended yet... And you are talking that his opponent has forced mate... And what if he didn't know this and read it here?!!! Please, don't talk too much about not finished games.
