Win or not?
The following game Game 3006810 was played against a fairly good player (probably better then his rating says). I was sure to win it, so sure that I didn't calculate a simple variation on move 44. I should have played Kd2 but instead I played Ke3?? and was only able to draw the game. It was probably possible to win it if you gave it a long thought but I got a little put off. Not that it matters very much that I lost but it would be fun to know if there is some theqnique to win this queen endgame, ofcourse that is trade queens or win the pawn with check. But how?
