Thoughts as to what outcome should have been?
Ask them....But i think white has the better of things - unless someone can show me otherwise...
**This may contain errors -- Don't assume its gospel...Which is why I might edit it..🙂**
EDIT ----
I've decided not to remove my COMPLETLY WRONG ANALYSIS (see below) it serves as a reminder....be more careful....
how can white make two moves in a row? ops! silly me....
Here's my re-evaluation: -
Kh1 Rxb7 Kxh2 Rb3
oh that explains it all.....
White is going to Drop the A-or G pawn....
If we assume the A-pawn....
Kg2 Rxa3 Ra6 g5 ....
then lets assume....
c5 Rc3...If the pawns are traded off [Rxa4 Rxc5] black is a pawn up....which may well decide the game...
Best white can hope for is a draw...
____________________________________________________________________
AND FOR THE WRONG STUFF.....
___________________________________________________________________
Kh1 Rc7....
Black's Rook is now pinned to the B-file therefore it can't "change lanes" and free up his A pawn
Kh6 c5 g5 c3 g4 fxg4 f3 Rf7
All White's Rook must do is prevent the F pawn promoting even if it requires sacrifice...
f2 Rxf2 Rxf2 b8=Q
And if black plays something other than f2 [lets say Kg5] ....c7!
c7 Rxb7 c8=Q Rxf7 - this is much more powerful if Whites Rook isn't on the 7th rank.
So....I am puzzled why White resigned...

Guess you should ask him
Originally posted by orfeoNo, looking back at it it's my incompetence. 😞

I made a stupid thinking error which resulted in my resignation. 😳
"The one who wins at a game of chess is the one who makes the fewest (noticed) mistakes."
Again I will congratulate you with your win and thank you for the good games. 🙂
btw If I make such a stupid mistake again, then a PM is more then enough to get a reaction out of me. 😉
Originally posted by Loose ScrewBut a public shaming is sooo much more fun. 😉 But really, it's much less embarrassing than many of my blunders (I am currently extremely good at making them 😞), and putting something like this into the public forum gives more people the opportunity to think it through and maybe learn something from it.

Originally posted by NordlysI certainly wasn't trying to shame you, Loose Screw. If anything I'm surprised no-one's asked why the heck I moved my pawn to h2!
