Phelon
This guy was fairly high rated, and it was a 15 minute game. Id been doing pretty well in the opening, and was overconfident and let my queen get trapped :(. However rather than just resign, I decided to try to fight it out and actually managed to win! This was just a really great comeback so I thought Id post it here.

OF COURSE U WOULD'VE WON.K+R+3P VS K+R IS A WIN FOR WHITE,IF THE 2 ROOKS ARE EXCHANGED.
Err... what? lol

@Andrew, what are you smoking dude... look at the board again.
@Phelon, heres a thought, how about next time you dont try and trap your queen like that avoiding this whole thing?
Thats the game plan. Course, I wouldnt have this game to post if I hadnt taken that pawn lol.

I once let my Queen get captured. I moved out with my bishop and knight, repeatedly checking the king until he was diagonally down-right-adjacent to the queen. Then I checked the king with my bishop from diagonally down-right... well, he had to move and I destroyed the queen.
I went on to win the game.

Many a time where i lose my queen i always end up with rook and minor piece against queen. Can someone offer a suggestion whether i could win against a lone queen with rook and minor piece?

Nice going! I think 36 Rc6 was even stronger. Anyway, you don't very often see 7 pawns vs 1 in a game!
You can't--at least, not usually (that's why it called "losing" the queen).
*scowls* I DO know the notation. I just can't remember the exact position.
It was something like...
The queen was at d8 and the king was at e7. My bishop was at h6 and I moved it to g5...
