Berger would say that it is lost for Black on two different counts-namely, Black cannot occupy the sixth rank with his Rook (because 1...RR3; 2 PK6 wins); and again, the Black King is on the wrong side of the Pawn, according to Berger. The following mainplaydemonstrates that both Berger's reasons are false".} 1... Kd8 2. Kd6 Rd1+ 3. Ke6 Re1 ({Frink, The Chess Amatuer, August 1926, p. 329} 3... Rh1 4. Ra8+ Kc7 5. Kf7 (5.
