Perseverance+Opportunity lead to Win

Ok, I posted my first game and it was a win. I am now posting a second game which is also a win but I feel it was luck. My opponent made 2 big mistakes in the endgame and loss the game. I feel I played poorly but I never gave up and with a little luck, I managed to pull through. Anyway, any help would be great; the opening is King's Indian Defense although I did not play g6 on move #2 so I am not sure if this is accurate.

This is being posted because of a response I recieved on my first post asking for one where I maybe loss or drew a game instead of a win.

Here's the post:

"Well done a win or draw is I feel is always a good result. Your win may be appropriate for showcase rather analysis. Could I ask that you post a game when you do eventually draw or indeed lose. Your opponents novice standard & overuse of queen moves indicate for me at least that analysis is unlikely to be helpful.

Thank You,

If you agree that the best black move on 29 was the resign button, then I will treat this as a 1 - 0 and analyse for a few days upto that point, let me know what you think.

 You mean after 29. Kf2? Why would the resign button be the best move? Yes, white was winning and the only way for black to win was with a mistake by white. White managed to get into a winning position but he still has to prove he knows how to finish. Everyone makes mistakes, even masters. It wasn't as if he had a King+Queen vs King endgame and I did not resign. It was still anyone's game, as the end proved.

I played terrible in this game and I agree I should have loss the game but my opponent made mistakes in the end. For most of the game I was behind and was not even playing for a win I was so far behind but I took advantage of a mistake and continued to play the best chess I could. If you think I should have resign on that move then I can say that I could have resigned even earlier in the game as my opponent was up about +5.00 according to the computer analysis. But I like to fight it out.
