ih8sens beat me to it in his last post but I thought I'd post my game I played yesterday.

You should have won that game! You could have sacrificed the queen for the rook and the pawn and still won because of your two passed pawns (particularly the outside passed pawn). But understandably a draw is better than a loss and particularly good as black in a position where the pawn was about to queen.

Yeah, I thought about that but I didn't want to take any chances.

Thanks. I'm actually unrated. There's just no chess where I live and it's hard to find people that actually play.

That's the case where I live too pretty much. But you seem like a real good player from that game.
