Interesting psychology here.  Did you doubt his king walk because he was lower rated?  I would probably dismiss it in my mind because it just looks bad.

Yeah, I just thought it was preposterous (until I started to notice I was losing!).  If a GM had played it against me, I would've thought he figured he could get away with anything (even that)...
