Would you accept the draw offer? If not, what would you play?

    Probably black should let white win the e-pawn by exchanging bishops. And then try to win the queens endings with 1 pawn up. So play something like Qb6. Rating difference doesn’t matter in an online game I think.

      I did play Qb6. Bishops were exchanged and I was able to force a queen exchange, then won the pawn ending.
