re:Controversial in a draw offer - 2007/01/02 13:46
Yes, I had Shredder constantly suggesting 45. Na8? as best and me wondering why, as Black quickly gets a passed pawn that is hard to stop. But when I played into Na8 a couple of moves Shredder very quickly switched to something like -2.00 for White finally smelling the fish. Computers are still greedy sometimes, I guess.
As he had more time than you I'm sure he would have played on. If your opponent misestimated the position that doesn't mean he would have played the wrong moves. In 10 more moves or so, when it's clear that the position is drawn and you could have had very little time left, it depends on the sportsmanship of your opponent if he tries to lift you over time or not.
As in hindsight the game was objectively drawn, you didn't lose anything with your draw offer.. ---------
There is no failure except in no longer trying.
