That's amazing. Probably frustrating if the guy saw that afterwards.
Missing Checkmate and losing

Another game between the two players started immediately after, so they probably didn't notice.I also left a comment on the game, but I'm not sure if the players get notified.

I will show you a game after todays round of the swedish chess championship in which a 1979 missed a mate in 3 combination after finding the first move. And this was a 90min +30 sec increment and after 40 moves another 30 min.
So yeah, this isn't a typical noob thing. Wasn't it Kramnik that missed mate in one? Ivanchuck did it in a blitz game aswell right?

This is Ivanchuck missing mate in 1 against Anand.
The announcers are very enthusiastic and make these games fun to watch.

I was watching a Live Chess tournament and couldn't believe my eyes when a missed checkmate flashed past in the game. (Admittedly, it was a 1min game).
The player who could have mated then went onto lose on time.
Upon rechecking the game, sure enough, 20. Qf8#.
Are there other instances of Master level games, or your own games where a mate is missed and the player goes onto lose?
