Still a draw
Man, I should stop posting past midnight. Your right agian.

Ke2 Ke8 and then Nc8 prevents that stuff. But ya Nc8 isn't a great move and Ke8 and then Ke7 wastes a move.

So Ke2 knight move for black then Ke7.

He's just giving an example of how bad he is at endgames.

He is saying that if he had a K+B+K vs a K he couldn't checkmate.

I wouldn't feel bad about it though, this situation rarely happens. They have thread on this checkmate in the chess forum and it should help you with that.

Just realised he means King , bishop and knight. I was trying to figue how he had 2 kings on one side.
Sorry - me being a bit dim again
