it says on the end that the position was fair but he had a rook and i was going to make a queen, surely im winning? (im black btw)
How is this a DRAW?
This is what it says -
Kf7is a great move
This is the only move that works! This evades the check from the rook.
It does not say it is a draw, nor the position was fair in the link you provided.
I am not very good, but yes I agree that you can win if you understand how to, and are capable of getting whjte in a Lucciana position and then capturing the rook and mating from there.
