There you go.

 
89. Kc6 Qxh5 90. Kc7
Qd5. You want to make white’s box smaller and smaller, using the king to guard the queen until white is driven against the wall.

Actually even better.

 
91. Kd8
Qe7 and the white king is trapped against the wall. Have the black king waltz over with blindfold and cigarette, and the black queen lops off his head.

Ok, this is followed by seventy moves of nonsense and black accidentally times out, giving white the win, despite insufficient material. It took me awhile to find a game where this occurs. There are no doubt others. I found this by sorting the ten thousand game players by rank, then sorting by moves, highest to lowest. I assumed high move games would have one player shy of material. The timeout was trickier, I just had to call up players with more than 2% timeouts. I was looking at only losses at first, but clicked on this win by chance.
