This is too short. You neither cover 1... Kg7 nor the black plan with Bd2 and attacking the white pawns via Be1-g3.


1...Kg7 2.Kd7 Bb4 3.Ke8 or 2...(K move) 3.Nxf7

Maybe it would have been better to put the comment about the B staying on the  a3-c8 diagonal with Black's first move, although the B can go to the diagonal on move 2

Good point. I only got Nxf7 one move later. Tks.

I suppose the idea is 1...Bd2 2 Kd7! Bxf4 3 Nxf7!, winning. Smiley

From Endgame Secrets #10 and Fundamental Chess Endings 5.30. Neither book finds a win for White, but both go through a long analysis starting with 1.Ne4. Apparently they (not sure about Beliavsky's Winning Endgame Technique, which supposedly also covers this position) all missed a much simpler winning line I have not seen anywhere:

White to move, yuraetev-serper ussr 1988

1.Kc6 Kf8 2.Kd7 Bb4 3.g4 hxg4 4.hxg4 Ba3

( Note B has to stay on the a3-c8 diagonal, otherwise e. g. 4...Bd2 5.Nxf7 Kxf7 6.e6+ Kf6 7.e7 )

5.f5 gxf5 6.gxf5 Bb4 7.e6 fxe6 8.fxe6 Bxd6 9.Kxd6

Even with black to move, it's not as simple but I don't think black can draw.

I have not found the moves to the entire game. Don't know what opening etc.

Can anybody find this in ECE (I don't have that set)? ECE 1051?
