Can you give an
example of a position in which a player should easily win a game
but a bad move can turn a victory into a stalemate?
Thank you.

Dear viewer,
Herman Pilnick vs.
Samuel Reshevsky (US Championship, 1942) shows a game situation
that may answer your question.
Having a three Pawn advantage and
virtually the game won,
Reshevsky (black) last move ...g4?? enables his
opponent to draw the game.
In the following interactive board, find the great move made by
Pilnick that enabled him to draw this game (white to play).
