Don't ever quit
Past few games I’ve punished myself by resigning every time I blundered a piece. Realizing that’s immature I decided to start thinking again. 4th win in a row is below and I wanted so bad to quit but suddenly turned it around. Good game to my opponent.

I am glad you got lucky, I always end up losing on time. It is a waste of time to keep playing a losing position in my opinion.

@louvoodooyahoo-com good point! Bots are most useful for training to look for the best move in a losing position. There’s always a best move and I enjoy playing against bot after losing. I’ve even seen a strong player doing checkers with a computer just to improve their pawn tactics.

I think a mistake by your opponent is always possible so definitely keep playing until it hits that tipping point where you’ve lost all your pieces.

I think unless you are just dead lost, resigning isn’t an option, at least for me. If you’re up there in elo it’s probably disrespectful not to resign. I find my opponents often get overconfident and leave themselves open to tactics after I blunder a piece.
