There is nothing about Black's position that suggests that he should win it. You need at least two advantages to win most games, and this goes double for endgames of bishops of oposite color. In the game of mine that I posted, the correct result up until about move 33 was a draw. He started pushing pawns and gave me another weakness to key in on, ...[text shortened]... you could win this position against me? I'll put my moey where my mouth is on this. Will you?
Still waiting. 😉

I couldn't even send the challenge. You make a big stink about having to wait on me to send the challenge, and your self-imposed maximum number of games is set to SIX?

I'm leaving for work shortly, so if you want you can just set the game up yourself.

You're right and I really apoligise for any inconvenience I may have caused you. I will fix my settings right now. 🙁
