Really sad to see as someone just getting into chess :(

Position from the game Zhongyi Tan vs Aleksandra Goryachkina, Semifinals of the World Cup 2023 Women's Section

Never seen a M100 notation before. Didn't even consider that this position could be winning for black. On the one hand I'm intrigued to learn to mate with 2N va. K+P, on the other hand it seems pretty useless...

Got my first smothered mate today in a blitz game.

For instance, I'd like to play black in this position:

8/p4p2/1p3pk1/8/P4PP1/1P1R1K2/7r/8 b - - 4 47

against the bot maia9

I don't care about the time so let's say 60mins a side which I know she accepts.

Is there a single URL for this?

Position from yesterday's game Carlsen vs Pantsulaia, Round 2 of the World Cup

In won endgame positions, computers are incredibly good and never miss a trick.

But in positions where they've lost, they tend to play really badly, often with the king running away from where the battle is, in order to delay the mate as long as possible, rather than duking it out and making it difficult to win.

Is there some way to get computers to try the sort of defensive strategies that a human would use against another human?

Where the game might finish more quickly, but the human will have had some thinking to do.

I seem to have trouble finding anyone to match up with. If you’d like to play with me either rated or unrated and on lichess or chess.com let me know! I am a very casual player FYI
