user2312: [FEN "8/1KP5/8/8/5p2/8/8/6k1 b - - 0 3"]

I recently come with this position on one of my games and I would like to know the result of this endgame...

user2379: The general rule in K+P vs K+Q is that, if the pawn is at the 7th(2nd) row on the third file (c or f file), and the opponent's king is not near, the game is a Draw because of the stalemate positions.

3...f3 ( On a race to promotion ) 4.c8=Q { ...that white just won. Or did he?!? } 4...f2 5.Qg4+ Kh1 6.Qf3+ Kg1 7.Qg3+ Kh1 8.Qh3+ ( 8.Qxf2 { If black takes the pawn...Disaster strikes = STALEMATE !! } ) 8...Kg1 9.Qg4+ Kh1 10.Qf3+ Kg1 11.Qg3+ Kh1 

*
If black takes the pawn...Disaster strikes = STALEMATE !!
If white allows black
to promote the pawn, in order to avoid drawing by repetition, the resulting
one is also a draw as no progress can be made by either side !
