Does it matter if he has good chances to win? You haven't won yet, so he's allowed to play on. Just shut your mouth and finish the game. There are so many of these stupid threads asking about resignations. People will resign when they're good and ready, starting another useless thread about it is simply inane. Get over it - he hasn't resigned, he might now, so checkmate him or be quiet.

If I were down queen and some pawns with only a king left I'd be embarrassed to get into that position against someone who didn't know how to finish it off.
