Draw!

So, a drawed game against a honourable opponent.

As my opinion, this was very close match, where i didn't too well use my opponent's mistakes for my advantage, and made on huge blunder which cost me the win.

 Of course your opponent, after having worked his king into position for the classic rook pawn draw over the course of several moves, isn't going to resign!  All he needed to do was exchange his knight for your bishop pawn and park his king in the corner for the draw.  He couldn't win with his single knight, but he knew he could draw.  On move 71 you annotated "drawish position" correctly!  Only a huge blunder by your opponent could have resulted in a win for you!

 

Thanks for sharing your game!

 Unfortunately, black can take the pawn then.

 Yes, but after black takes the pawn, (with the skewered king), you take his bishop and have a won endgame with rook vs knight...That (I think!) was tonydal's point...
