I just played an extremely positional game with a game deciding mistake by me! In the end. I won. But Im sure it was very frustrating for my opponent. He had about 2:45 seconds on his clock, then he sat until 6 seconds left and made a very fast move with his king. Probably expecting me to be afk so he could win on time. I have played many people who have done this.. It is pathetic. If you have fallen victim to this please tell.

Somebody else also made a forum about this. It's never happened to me, but it has to others.

Sorry, I'm confused. What does afk mean?

The other day I played a 15 minute long match and in the end was down a full minor piece...but I had 10 minutes left on my clock and my opponent had slightly over one minute, so I ran out his clock.

Legitimate strategy.
