Hey chessfriends everywhere!

I have been playing chess for a while now and I when I played a match with a friend we ended this game in a draw because of the 50-move rule. I am just wondering whether I could have won with white. 

Pleas give me advice or an opinion :) Thanks!!

Looks like a draw to me. White's King can be excluded from the battle.

Yes, this is a theoretical draw. I don't know if it's an easy practical draw though.

What do you mean by excluded? Would it have been a different case if the king would have been on g4 or e6 perhaps?

It's a theoretical draw but not easy to defend.

Kasparov once beat Judit Polgar in this endgame and if Polgar has problems to save the draw anyone will have.

I meant that Black's Rook could keep the White King from assisting in the attack.

King position you stated shouldn't make much difference.

Thanks for the comments everyone, I'm going to check out that game between Kasparov and Polgar, do you by any chance know which game it is silentarius?
