  Chessical: According to Keres, mate can only be forced in the two corners which are the same colour as the bishop controls.

The K must be driven into the correct corner:

61.Nf4 Kg8 62.Ng6 Kh7 63.Be6 Kh6 64.Bg8 Kh5 65.Ne5 Kh4 66.Be6 Kg3 67.Bf5 Kf4 68.Nc4 Kf3 69.Ke5 Ke2 70.Bc2 Ke1 71.Ke4 Ke2 72.Kf4 Kf1 73.Kf3 Ke1 74.Ke3 Kf1 75.Be4 Ke1 76.Nb2 Kf1 77.Nd3 Kg1 78.Kf3 Kf1 79.Bf5 Kg1 80.Bh3 Kh2 81.Nf4 Kh1 82.Kg3 Kg1 83.Ne2+ Kh1 84.Bg2#
