+mcpartridgeboy Hey mcpartridgeboy! I do coach online, though I have a waiting list at present. If you're interested, feel free to send me a message and I'll send you some details. By the way, thank you for being an avid follower of my videos!
+Jake Corbett It's not guaranteed that John would've seen it. It's likely, but not guaranteed. A general rule is to never resign when it's your opponents turn.

+Devvan Butler Hey, Devvan! It would be hard for me to turn down a sponsored entry to Millionaire Chess ;)
John Bartholomew i think it cost 1000 to enter. i have to see how much it cost. 1000 is not that bad.
so ? :D
Get better soon John!

John Bartholomew you can thank me with a drink once you won millionaire chess ! ahaha ! sure ill send a messge if I can figure out how !
He resign prematurely :/
+SamtheBOLD Dunno, that fork would put him in a poor position. Seems justified
+Jake Corbett It's not guaranteed that John would've seen it. It's likely, but not guaranteed. A general rule is to never resign when it's your opponents turn.
+SamtheBOLD I thought so too.
Well, he is an IM, so the player probably assumed he would.
Jake Corbett
Even GMs blunder from time to time, and if you are in such a hurry to resign, perhaps you should wait and play chess another time! :-)
