Kg2 { surfnsuds: There are a couple of really hard to win situations, and one is to have your pawn locked up as mine will be with your pawn in front of it. If I am prevented from getting my King over to rescue the pawn then you will eventually get rid of all your pieces and I'll lose. You're still in a very strong position. If I still had my rook, I'd be in a better position to rescue my pawn and get him killed off. } 27... Ke6 28. Kg3 Ng4 29. Kxg4 h5+ 30. Kxh5 Rg6 31. Kxg6 e3 { Game Over: Well done! } 0-1
