You are 2nd? NO

You can ask for points? NO

Your remaining opps gives you some points? NO

Your exchanges of pieces give you enough points? NO

BUT

Let's see my game!

As you can see, I hoped my opp to have given me some points, let me be 2nd, due to my co-op with him before. However, he wanted to checkmate me straightly.

I came up with an idea: "Go up with the resigner's king, and if the opp make wrong moves, I can checkmate it".

Just have taken a look to my time and the opp's, my time was too low. Nevertheless, I thought I was able to change...

Very surprising! We stalemated the dead. I got 10 pts and succeeded to get 2nd.

Some advices:

  • Don't resign if you can do anything!
  • Don't be hasty to ask for points. It's not allowed
  • If you have more time than the opp when the both's are low, try to disturb his pieces, and you can think to play for win.

Let's chill!
