Chicago Open (2) -- There is No Justice in Chess

In the second round, Tom Friske outplayed me as White in the middlegame to win a pawn and reach the following ending.



Not wanting to let me have the knight check on d1, Tom decided on 42.Kf3?? which loses to 43.Nc2! Regardless of how White takes the pawn, he loses his rook for Black's knight after which Black picks up the knight with ...Re7+. Friske v. Hart.
