Subject: Won position or Draw?

Hi chess people,
I am not an expert so am seeking advice on a postion I recently played
I agreed to a draw since I was playing someone better, he said althoug
I was up two pawns I could not stop his passed pawn. If someone coul
look at this and let me know, was he right, is it doomed for a draw a
I agreed? I could not find a win...

I was black
Kh7 Qe3 ph6/g6/f7

opponent had white
Kg1 Qb5 pa4

Thanks in advance,
as I said, I'm a casual player and this position has been on my min
for some time now

Must be white to move, as he is in check.

Cheers

I agree. Looks like a draw to me too. You cannot exchange queens now
because his pawn will easily win (your king is too far away). And if
you try to bring your king closer to his pawn you could give him time
to advance his pawn.
