Jan-25-06  waddayaplay: Another interesting endgame. Puc has six pawns for a piece, which probably should be winning. But he doesn't manage to advance his passed king side pawns, and the game ends in a draw.

  whiteshark: <waddayaplay: <Another interesting endgame.>> Indeed. Generally speaking 5/(6) pawns should be enough to win this endgame.
