37. Rxd7

45... Nd3+
|
arghhh. |

47. g4 Na2

i actually have winning chance here. by attacking the knights, forcing black king to help, and giving g and h pawn it's freedom. 48.Kd2, which prevented the knight to go anywhere, unless the king helps. 48. .. Kd5. but then, i can start moving my pawn 49. g5 and forcing the king to return, thus me getting the knight. but i was only fearing to defend and safe pawn instead of attacking. not focus. |

48. c4 Nc3 49. a5 Ke5

a very good move by black. this prevents white king to go to the back rank. |

|
50. Kf3 Ne4 51. h4 Nxc5
|
another pawn is down. my chances are just with the g and h pawn. however it's harder as the black king is in a good position to prevent white king defending it's pawns. |
|

|
|
52. g5
|
but then, i've got an idea. let black king go as far right as possible, while i'm taking it's pawns (and horse if possible on the left). |

52... Kf5 53. Ke3 Nb3 54. Kd3 Nxa5 55. Kd4 Nb3+ 56. Kc3 Nc5 57. Kd4 Ne6+ 58. Kc3 Kg4 59. Kb4 Kxh4
|
the king is on the farthest right, just as planned. now, taking the loot. |

60. Ka5 Nc7
|
now this will show you that every step counts on a finishing game. the game can turn around easily. this oppens up a possibilities of draw or even winning, down from losing. |

61. Kb6

gotcha. moving knight will lose a6. moving anything else will lose c6. note: i can't take knight, as it will set loose the a pawn. |
|
| |
|
|
61... Kxg5 62. Kxc6 Kf5 63. Kb6
|
still cannot take knight. but now attacking with c pawn, as it is closer to the back row. when it's close enough, then i can take the knight. and have the pawn race. but, mine is closer. and the black king is too far. i'm pretty sure black had some winning chances as well, but that's what playing more than 5 games with 3 days per move can make to your game. unless you stay focused, on every move. |

63... Ke5 64. c5 Ke6 65. Kxc7
|
i'm winning (please comment if i'm wrong). black is lost by time run out, not retired. however, even if black only move it's pawn, i still win one move, checking it's king first. moving black king wil mean white pawn is even ahead, and just by moving white king to b7 will protect it's way for a promotion. |
