A little bit of luck helps...
Be it the draw of opponents or the game itself.

Yes Idontcastle, You are so right !
This knowledge has taken me 40+ years to learn, and can be a crucial factor in elimination/tournament games ! Shame on some of my opponents, who think it's necessary to play on until a mate is not even possible ! Live and Learn, I suppose !
