Never Give up!

This is not the first time as it happened another time opponent had 4 Q’s and a a rook and get a stalemate draw. Don’t get me wrong I will resign. But than when I see he’s collecting Q’s I said to myself I’m gonna ride this one out. I nearly passed out laughing when Got the stalemate

Funny I’m 57 only played chess less than a year.

Wish I had discovered this great game sooner!

I consider chess a great game that I will never be great at!

Stale mates are fun but are a bit more tricky at 2000+ better practice those eric rosen stalemate tricks

Except when it’s YOU

This is true. Never give up is important mindset in chess.

I think about it like Ancelloti or Pep Guardiola game management.

Even in the 89th minute if they are 0-2 down they will keep trying to score 2 goals in whatever minutes they have left.

What's notable is they also shout at the referee if they are 2-0 up in the 89th minute, anticipating and preventing their opponent from still in some world doing a crazy comeback.

so it works both ways

your opponent was one of those people who checkmates only by giving random checks

Remember that even the best players have losing streaks. Losses are an integral part of the learning process. Each game, win or lose, offers valuable lessons.
