Joined 14 Mar '15 Moves 28711 Why do so many opponents complain when you put them in perpetual check? Even GMs will use such a tactic to salvage a forced draw from an otherwise lost position.

I think I have the game. He may have had more to complain about if Black
had not taken the perpetual. (you may have better than the perpetual.)

Thanks for that. Yes, wish now i had had considered mobilizing the knight. (Although don't think i deserved more than a draw in that game).

I love the perpetual check. And when somebody pulls one off against me I'm more likely to applaud them. I think it comes down to my father never trying to checkmate us kids; but always tried to stalemate, perpetual check or draw us -- he said beating us was too easy.
With that said, I had a game not too long ago where I was so intent on finding the perpetual check against a much higher rated opponent that I missed a winning move. Rh8! I think would have won me this game.
