How to find a specific game I played a long time ago? • page 1/1 • General Chess Discussion • lichess.org

Hi guys! A long time ago, I found a combination that ended with smothered mate to save a lost position. I wish I could find this game. For a low rated player, that was pretty epic. I think it was bullet time control. Is there a way for me to search my games for last position, or something to that effect?

If you cannot remember more details about the game to limit the search, it is quite difficult.

You could export all your games, and use chessbase or a similar tool to do a search on a position if you remember a couple of pieces (you seem to remember part of the checkmate) or piece movements. You don't need the complete position, and you can try a couple of different searches. Still more fun than to look at 2500 games individually.

Thank you for the tip! I somehow managed to find it, I don't know how. Then I starred it so I can look at it every time I hang my queen from now on.
