Drawn That Way
check out this game i just played to my offer of a draw (by perpetual check). the beginning was pretty uneventful but in early endgame (after his moves 26/27ish) his mating threats pushed me to play some very creative bishop moves (i think. e,g, my move 28) though i didn't see i could win really (i had opted to sac my rook, move 35, to be able to play to a draw) maybe you can see a better way than i?

i wish i could paste in austin's pgn viewer here, but i don't think i am able to include javascript files here :-/
if you're a pc person you can download winboard, for mac people i still recommend fixation though i imagine there are others out there.
oh here is a free online viewer that doesn't seem to be trying to sell anything :B
oh cool he even has a FEN editor too.
