{SamuraiGoroh resigns} 1-0
samuraigoroh (2016-07-30): I saw that the king could slowly push the kingside pawn and promote since I gave for free the pawn. Tried to make something from the queenside, but was to many moves away to be able to do something (he could promote and defend his rook before I could pin it)
joshuar (2016-07-31): Not bad. Mostly it was just a bit tough after going down a pawn and your rooks tied to defense.
