After you win a game in chess, your opponent wants to show you where he missed a win in post-mortem and, of course, there is no "crushing win" there at all.
What is the most boring thing in chess?
...when you wake up with hangovers, remembering that you were very drunk last night and came home thinking you were Kasparov and lost 400 blitz points....

Chess Player of the Month ?
Amen!
That concept has completely dried up now that the kid who runs it has taken an iron fist approach.

I think finishing a won game is one of the boring things in chess.
Actually... finishing a won game..especially a big tournament, 1st, 2nd, 3rd place on the line, hard fought 4 hour plus game... is very enjoyable.
Now waiting for a player to move after a very long time.. I bet will be #1... it is for me.

i don't think your alone, i play 1.nf3 exclusively and many people abandon the game at that point. i thought is was because maybe they have problems with 1.nf3 turns out I'm boring. my own suspicions confirmed. viva 1.nf3!

okay, I got it... trying to research an opening via grandmaster games and all you can find is 15-20 move draws.

Finishing a won game?! How about the converse; finishing a losing game? It's like waiting for the other shoe to drop!

Hey,I opened this topic 3 years ago!It's a surprise you guys remembered to comment on it again.Thank you all!

I really don't like it when it's necessary to check a move with a lot of calculation. I like trying to "read" the position and calculate a few short sequences. When there are a lot of tactics I hate trying to find the most accurate sequence under risk of losing... it's very tedious to me.
