Don't ever resign, even if you are Queenless!

Some people, especially begginers resign the game way to early and others think that one piece down is a game over pretty much.

I want to show you an example , where I had my queen trapped, BUT i didn't give up and continue.

I think once you are queenless...the onus is on the other player...and that advantage can lead to over confidence especially in situations where time is a challenge...So don't resign if you are queenless..!!

My queen was never trapped? Obviously you don't know how to play the game .

B4 move 16 was a huge mistake ? Can you elaborate on this ?

It seems like we both don't know much about chess, but you seems much more experienced player, maybe you can share one of your games in blitz 3/2 mins or any other blitz time controls with a titled player, I'm sure we are all interested to see it.

Hmm, black's move 28... Rac8 looks like deliberate queen sacrifice since white's next move 29. Be4 traps the black queen. But based on the headline I guess that black missed that the queen could be trapped when he played 28... Rac8. Anyway the result is that black has two bishops pointing at white's king position and the rooks get the c-file. Certainly a strong attack is going on.

A game with a nice finish!

 I don't understand all that arguing. It is a game with a nice, but probably involuntary, queen sacrifice that worked out just fine. The set up of black's bishops and rooks are just great.

Thank you .

We'll actually queen is not trapped after nice tactic , which I didn't see at that time under the time pressure obviously. Rook c8 takes c1 move 29 after he trapped my queen And my queen is safe.

That game was just 3 minute blitz and is not very instructive because many errors on both sides....

That's incorrect! The game was 3/2mins with an INCREMENT, which makes a big difference

You are welcome.

If black plays 29... Rxc1 it gets rather complicated. There are quite some tactics to consider. Here is one:  9... Rxc1 30. Rxc1 Qxh3 31. Bf3 Bxg4 32. Bxg4 Qh2 33. Qf3.

why have you posted this game at least three times now (probably more). I can understand you're happy with the win but you only need to share it once.
