KRN v's KR

I have a game going where i have a King/rook/knight and my opponent has a King/Rook, no pawns on either side. Am i correct in assuming this ending is drawn? I have offered my opponent a draw already which he refused (Lord knows why 😕). Obviously i'm not asking for assistance in how to play this ending, but if it is theoretically possible to FORCE a win, without any mistakes being necessary, I'd like to know. Again, i don't need you to tell me how, i'll find out myself... Many thanks 😀

You can mate, but cant force it 🙂

Yes, unless his king is already in the position it shouldnt be 🙂

Longest mate is 37 moves.


With black (KR) to move:

Win: 3.2%
Draw: 93.6%

Longest mate is 41 (takes the hanging rook first move and then mates via KRKN strategy).

The part with 110.1% is where I get hazy.

Should be 36.7, 63.3 and 0.1 respectively.
The extra 0.1% comes from rounding.

Sorry copied it down wrong.
