Why in the world would white resign here? It looks to me like black is mated soon.

Why did white give up in a won position? Have you emailed Nowakowski about it?

Joined 26 Feb '10 Moves 342 Does Black have counter play after 38.Kg3? Or is it mate with Rf5?
Joined 26 Feb '10 Moves 342 Not that I see. 38.Kg3 39.Rf5
Black can delay it by giving up material but that is sad.

Joined 03 Apr '06 Moves 44348 The position is a clear win for white, but Nawakowski has "private reasons" for resigning, and is not willing to share this w/ the forum.

Joined 03 Apr '06 Moves 44348 He saw the win, he just didn't play it because he had some previous agreement with his opponent. This in itself is not cheating and I don't believe any cheating accusations have been made in this thread, have they?
BTW White has a forced mate in the final position.
Joined 26 Feb '10 Moves 342 I don't see how losing = cheating.
So if I resign early I am cheating too?
Joined 26 Feb '10 Moves 342 I have a couple games that I want to unload, but I guess that would be cheating?
