Ladies and gentleman, this is why you don't showboat. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I think we've all done something like that at one time or another, especially playing against bots.

Going against Samantha was embarrassing.

Learn what "checkmate" is and what "stalemate" is.

Learn what a "king" is and what a "queen" is.

Try not to make silly one-move blunders like 9. Nxe5 or 10. f4. Or 61. Qec6.

The more queens are on the board, the higher the potential threat of a stalemate…just mate as soon as you spot a winning line🐼

My advice is next time you want to troll by promoting, be aware of stalemate. Everyone do a mistake in their life, you're not the only one.

Once I was completely winning in a king and two pawn endgame but I make it a stalemate

Why yes its a common error of beginners to stalemate the opponent.

If you have an overwhelming material advantage, just keep putting the opponent in check. You cannot ever stalemate this way.

Besides you dont need more than two queens to checkmate a king. In fact queen and rook would already checkmate very quickly.
