During a casual game, my
opponent knocked down his King. He said it
was an accident and put it back upright.
My
question is if I had the right to declare
myself a winer or ignore the incident and
keep playing as if nothing happened.
Best
regards.

Dear
viewer,
If this was an
accidental "knock down", the game should
have continued
since there was no intention to resign from the
other side.
Now,
if a player knocks down his King with the intent to resign and a
few seconds later he analyzes the position and finds that he
had a winning chance and try to continue, then it is not
possible to comeback to the board and must accept he lost
the game.
