Sounds like you may have stalemate him maybe, without seeing the game it's a guess.
Why is this a draw instead of checkmate?

my next move ends the game in a draw. For example, I had my King on g3 and my Queen on g8. My opponent only had his king left...on h6. I moved my king to h4 and had his king in check. Shouldn’t his only moves available allow me to checkmate him?
