Losing by time

I lost by time. I had a Queen, a rook, and a knight. My opponent had a king and a pawn. My time expired and my opponent had 1:15 left. This should be a draw not a loss.

Next time, take the pawn.

aitorsantos029 won on time.

Both sides have mating material.  You ran out of time.  That is a loss.

What time control were you playing, if it's below 5 minutes then you should be somewhat expecting to be clocked.

Time is a big part of the game, that is why if I have say a Q+R against a pawn and say less than 3s, I will give up the Q for the pawn to secure the draw
