I am AryanBhardwaj1234 an average player having elo of 777 having win rate of 78% and I also used to resign a match when i lost my queen maybe my 2 rooks but thats not the point "Game of chess doesn’t ends when pawn cut your queen the game ends when king falls " Every Grand Master was once a beginner So try to win but if you know you will lose dont resign... Play till end..... Trying is far better than just resign and thinking "Oops I lost my queen lets quit" So from today I request all of you to play till end and don't resign Are you all satatificed from this or not? -AryanBhardwaj1234 (Next Champion)

At some point, when you get to higher ratings, losing a piece for free, especially the queen, can lose you the game immediately. Just because you made a blunder doesn’t mean your opponent will do it, too. I wouldn’t put it past them, but for me it’s not worth staying around for him to just crush me in the end. If they know how to trade pieces when ahead, I just lose. No need to wait around hoping for them to blunder.

I resign as soon as I believe I don't have a good chance at a draw. Often, I resign poor positions even if material is even, because it's probably, eventually, a lost game. I don't feel like wasting my time, or my opponents

No it doesn't only abandoning or aborting

I don't resign quickly unless I'm tilting, but I never play until the end either unless my opponent is low on time. At my level (2000+) there is a point that if your opponent has enough time they are guaranteed to convert unless they get smacked by a flying wet fish.

xD

For me, on my alt my winrate is around 68% (Blitz, around 100 games) and 100% for rapid cuz I played 8 and won 8 grin.png

On lichess my blitz is around 65% (Nearly 700 games) and 70% for rapid (Nearly 300 games)

As for puzzles, it's only 55% but I have played almost 8000 puzzles just here on this account so I think it's decent.

Good Lord!

Round of applause for that visual.

Feel like giving my opinion here. I usually resign a lot, and I mean a lot. I'd say 80% of my games lost are because of me resigning. I resign if I think the position is out of my hands or my opponent simply has a greater advantage than me. One more situation in which I resign is when the match gets too boring and I am tired.
