I played a fun game recently where I made my opponent's king take a nice walk across the board. My most enjoyable king-hunt ever :)
Comments welcome!
26 ...Kc7 loses to the line you gave. After 27. e6+ Qd6 then
28. Bxb7 Kxb7
29. Qxd6 Rxd6 and 30. exf7 wins for white
alternatively 28... Qxf4
29. Nxf4 Kxb7
30. exf7 Rf8
31. Nxg6 and 1-0 (connected passers on the kingside)
I don't want to try to top your story Erik but a couple of days ago I walked my opponent's king from g1 to g6 -- then resigned!
I'd managed to help him get to the only safe square on that side of the board and left him threatening either 32. Rd8# or 32. Qxe6+ with mate to follow.
I'd post the game here but the game-inserter doesn't seem to be working, so here's a link to the game instead:
