I doubt you can talk about luck against Ikarus. Ikarus played some horrible
moves in this game. 31.Rgxh6 is a ?? move and 45.h3 too, although black is much
better anyway. Moreover it wasn't forced at all to enter the bad endgame.

Of course white might have won this game with 31.Qg2 followed by 42.c4, 43.Qf3
if necessary and finally d4-d5 but Ikarus didn't play it.
