My opponent's blunder cost him the game

Recently played against a 1214 rated player. Quite good, but he could use some practice. Anyhow, at the end of the game I had a sligh disadvantage, my king was forced into a corner, and my only hope was to pin his king down.

 I tried releasing the rook hoping he wouldn't go anywhere but on d2.

 Quite a serious blunder.

 

 Comment and post alternate moves of the white queen that could've saved him.

Nicely done but even if he moved Qf2 you would exchange and he would be down two knights :D


 Indeed, but my mate was delayed, and his chances of mating me were actually pretty high. He forced my king in that square, and there was a pawn around there that was threatning my king, but I think I took it with a knight/bishop earlier.

 

 By the way if you guys would like a full game analysis post it and I'll make it happen.
