Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant failed to preserve his contention that the Supreme Court gave an insufficient jury charge with respect to murder in the second degree ( see People v. Chin, 67 NY2d 22). In any event, this contention is without merit. The charge, as a whole, adequately conveyed to the jury all of the elements of murder in the second degree ( see People v. Coleman, 70 NY2d 817; People v. Knight, 261 AD2d 487). Accordingly, the challenged charge did not deprive the defendant of a fair trial ( see People v. Slacks, 225 AD2d 805, affd 90 NY2d 850).
