    I used to think I was bad as a kid because in that situation I'd have made sure the queens were always on diagonals with one another on similar rows/columns to ensure there's no way to take them. Never imagined seeing someone lose two queens to just a king for absolutely no reason, the 50 move rule is more than generous enough to ensure play it safe when you can't lose.
