Balls up in last thread. Wipe the slate and try again.
In a recent game with cludi Game 1324556 the following endgame position ocurred:
8/8/kP6/P7/2K1B1bp/8/8/8 w - - 1 60
cludi continued 60.b7? Be2+ 61.Kc5 Ka7 62.Kc6 Ba6 and the game petered out in a draw.
My initial analysis is that there's a win here but I can't do better than 60.Bd3 Bf3 61.Kb4+ Kb7 62.Bf1 (else h3) Kc6 giving the position:
8/8/1Pk5/P7/1K5p/5b2/8/5B2 w - - 7 63
which is starting to look rather drawish to me. Can anyone do better?
cheers,
Brett
