MISSED MATE

Bullet game requires speed and ability to manage time wisely. In addition, the possibility of winning also influenced by the connection quality (lagging factor) that we have. Based on such consideration, we often went in haste, so that we missed the opportunity to make a checkmate position.

For an example :

2. http://www.chess.com/livechess/game?id=567959903

Note:
1. In the 34th move, I should 34. Ke3 Rae2# (mate).
2. In the 39th move, I should 39.Qf6+ Rg7 40.Qxg7# (mate)

>SupremeOverlord :
Accuracy isn't the most important thing in the bullet game, but if we're making blunder, this causes us to be in a difficult position so that it will spend a lot of time to think how to get out from the difficulty.

When I played Precision23 a few time ago. Look at the 20th move, I've made a blunder check by my queen 19.c4+Ke5 20.Qf4+ . Actually, I should check by my bishop :19.c4+Ke5 20.Bf4#  and MATE!

When I played Platun some times ago. Look at the 27th move, I've made a blunder. I move my queen to 27.Qh6. Actually, I should check by my rook 27.Rh8#  and MATE!

It doesn't matter IMO. A quick mate is a quick mate. It doesn't matter whether you mate the opponent in 1 move or 20. As long as he is mated...

Thank for your appreciation, but in bullet every move and every seconds left are very important, we must be able to count our time allocation to reach the victory as soon as possible.. Bullet is a fast game, It is a matter of life or death in 1 minutes, ggss..Laughing
