You were absolutely right to accept his offer--if you played on you might have lost?

Avatar of aurophoe

Ok

What game was this? I don't see it in your history.

Avatar of aurophoe

Because he dont want to lose

Of course you were wrong. Being up two pieces , your move to really throw him off was to immediately resign!

Did you gain or lose points from this draw?

If you lost points you were absolutely wrong to accept

You sure he wasn't English and offering you a draught? (I.e. Beer)?

If you are up those pieces . . .NO! . . .

Swap as many pieces as you can and you wil win in the end . . .

I felt a bit mean about the whole thing, cos I had the white pieces, and opened with the “ Woollensock gambit “ which completely bamboozled my opponent, and cost him his Queen and rook ! 🤷‍♂️
