After a fatal slip of the finger easily spotted by experienced players, is it not fair to offer and accept a draw?
Draw / Surrender : not in German vocabulary
good sports will offer a draw in a close game and its obvious and/or they mention the slip. most people r not good sports though..due to anonymity.

What do you think? Professional sports is all fair play?
Wake up, it's not out of anonymity but out of the desire to beat.
I would never ask for, or expect, a draw after a mouse slip.
Laskersnephew neither would I

How about one of your latest wins then? On move 37, your opponent went 37...Qg6. I wonder if you offered a draw there.
Your opponent surely did not offer draw at all. It's part of online chess. You have to accept the mouse-slip as a mistake just like any other.
