  Jack Rabbit: Interesting way of winning with the Rook Pawn. The White King will be cut off from with the Black King on escort duty and the Rook able to shield attacks.

1. <75 Kd2 Kb2>

2. <75 Kd3 Kb2 76 Rh2+ Kb1 77 Rh1+ Rc1>

3. <75 Kd4 Kb2 76 Rh2+ Rc2>

  keypusher: Another example of Petrosian prevailing with a "bad" bishop.

  thatsmate: Doesn't 73...Rb2 win as well? It strikes me that white either has to let the pawn promote, or play 74. Ra1 Rb1 75. Rxa2+ Kxa2 with black winning, obviously.
Oct-18-06  wharfrat: <thatsmate> After your suggestion of 73...Rb2, how does Black win after 74.Rf8?
Aug-29-08  PAWNTOEFOUR: <Jack Rabbit> when i see analysis that looks interesting i like to see if shredder or crafty comes up with the same thing..and after 1.3 million nodes crafty seems to prefer this line....pv 75.Kd3 Kb2 76.Rg1 Rc1 77.Rg2+ Kb3 78.Rxa2 Kxa2 79.<HT> -575 Crafty
