What a pawnstorm! It doesn't get much sweeter than that my friend.

What amazes me is how White went from an easy win to a crushing defeat in a single move. 37.Kd2 wins. 37.Kb2 loses. He apparently was too content with his rook and did not give your three connected passed pawns the respect and attention they deserved. Great playing--you really drove the lesson home. I bet he'll remember!

LF, agreed white had an easy win.
Activate that Rook ! Study of the endgame is giving me enjoyment. I am moving up the scale from Horrid to Slightly below average and that is translating to some wins.
