45. Rxe4 Qh4 46. Kg2
Even at this stage white makes these calm moves even that he could try to go for more direct options.

 
46... Kg6
46...Rh8 47.Qd6 Rg8 48.f3 is too dangerous.

 
47. Qd6+
White goes for winning move by trading queens.

 
47... Qf6
47...Rf6 doesnt help anything as 48.Qg3 Qg5 49.Qd3 Bf5 50.Qd5

 
48. Qxf6+ Kxf6
My bishop has been just standing on c8 and that material advantage has been useless for me.

 
49. f3
White has strong queenside pawns and now he has even strong kingside pawns that are free to advance, nobody would want to be me right now.

 
49... Rg8 50. Kg3 Be6
Im just moving as I had lost my intrest in this game already or I was living in somekind of fairy tale that white echanges his rook to my bishop and I go for draw.

 
51. Kf4 Bc8
nothing is happening from my part.

 
52. Re5 Rh8 53. g5+
white keeps going.

 
53... Kf7 54. Ke4
king out of pawns way.

 
54... Rh1 55. f4 Re1+ 56. Kd5 Rd1+
just checking....

 
57. Kc5 Rc1+ 58. Kd6 Rd1+ 59. Rd5
Now I cant even continue my fun by checking.

 
59... Rf1 60. f5 Rg1 61. f6
Now its only matter of time when white will get his pawns through

 
61... Re1 62. Re5 Rd1+
and I go back for my own fun.

 
63. Kc5 Rc1+ 64. Kd4 Rd1+ 65. Kc3
King is coming....

 
65... Rc1+ 66. Kd2 Rf1 67. Re7+
Now I resigned and I have probably been irritating for my opponent as I kept moving so I felt it was right to say sorry that I kept continuing and so I did. It looks like I need to go back to learn basics as material doesnt win against mighty pawn arsenal. Somebody might wonder why I didnt try to go for draw by someway and truth is I didnt find one and other reason is that I hate draws as I want only to win but in lost position I will go for draw if I find it even that I hate it.
