I have been playing a game on Gameknot.com and worked my way into a pretty even endgame but one that I thought I could win and in the end I had a draw. At one point I could have pressed the issue and both I and my opponent could have promoted a pawn each but I held on to the possiblity that my opponent would have placed his king on the 8th rank and allowed me to queen with check and some advantage.
He didn't put his king on the eight rank until it was too late and I had to settle for a draw. The moral of the story, I would like to know if I had better moves to make in the endgame to see if I could do better. I couldn't find any but it just feels like there should be something. So, I purchased Fritz so I can get a better look into the game.
I guess it is only fair to show the game as well. So, it is below. Nothing really interesting happened in it so I don't have any annotations but who knows maybe there was something there after the exchange of the last rooks from the board.
