Question

What was your best win in chess and/or draw?!!!!?

Answer 1

I don't play chess--well, I played a couple of times and I lost

Answer 2

No.

Answer 3

I was the the Georgia high school state champions, junior varsity(i got on the top team my senior year) and was in my final round.  I was playing 3 board for a team of 5, and the last person on my team still sitting.  If i won, we won and brought home 7 place- a huge honor for a b team - I lost, we lost.  To say the least, I was terrified.

Luckily, I was winning, has a strong king side attack going, and was desperately throwing everything I had at him.  Finally, after calculation, I sacrificed material...and got the mate, I breathed finally.  My opponent tipped his king, and we reported the game.  

It was at that time, he decided, maybe it *wasn't* mate, and now he didn't wanna sign the paper conceding I had won.  Had I been Little more experienced and older, I wouldn't have gone for it, but I agreed to replay out the game, and to my horror, he was right, it wasn't mate..

The color rushed out from my face as I stared, heartbroken at the board.  I had blown it...wait.  A simple pawn move.  I push the pawn, and said for the second time in the match, "Mate".  Obviously embarrassed, he scampered out of the tournament room with little chat and I was pulled aside by a tournament director who told me the pawn move *and* the position show great play on my part.  

One of my better victories =)

Answer 7

My Alekhine Defence win with white over Rafael Vaganian in our 1986 World Championship Candidates Semifinal match. It was published all over the world at the time.

My favorite draw will always be the 14th game from the subsequent Candidates Final Match with Arturo Yusupov. he had white and needed to win to even the match score to bring us to a playoff. He played the Queen's Indian Defence and made a new move that gave him a ferocious attack against my King. But I managed to hold on and got the draw. This result got me into the Candidates Superfinal Match a year later against Karpov (to determine who would challenge Kasparov for the chess crown in 1987), which sadly I lost.

Answer 8

I was playing against a computer, when I was trying to be smart and get a fifth queen. I had my pawn going down, and his king was the next one down, so I moved my queen into place, and he moved his king down. Then I kept trying my strategy and moved my pawn down, and accidently won. But it was really cool, even though the computer took around 2 min. per move. The game ended up being around a 40 min. game.
