Well played, really unexpected ending. Really love it when your oponents get carried away, check out my post for something similar.

Just goes to show that TMS (Take More Stuff) isn't always the best doctrine in a won position. But after awhile, when playing considerable material up against a weaker player, boredom sets in. GG and congrats for hanging in there.
