pawn race for the win

    This felt like an very even match up until the end when my opponent miscalculated the pawn race and mishandled it giving me the win.

    Was a fun match where I didn't make any game changing mistakes. I am pretty sure I could have played my d pawn better but the way I played it didn't lead to me being worse so it wasn't too big of a deal.

    After b6, why not Rh1+ Kxh1 e1=Q+

    Because after he played b6 I could queen without him stopping it. If I were to sacrifice the rook it makes it much harder to mate. The chess.com computer said I should have played Rb1 instead of where I put the rook, but it didn't make much difference.
