I see now how is it working.
If after the check: 1.Kf3 Rxf4+
white takes the checking piece: 2.Kxf4 the game is automatically a draw. (this makes sense)
But if white didn't take, say he played 2.Ke2 then Black wins after his next move 2... Kd4 0-1 (Bare King Rule)
The question now is, whether the game should have been an automatic draw right from the begining, after 1... Rxf4+, without white having to play (like it is the case now, when a player bares the other but without check).
