Aug-01-06		Runemaster: 65...Rxa7 66.Rf6+ Kb7 67.Rf7+ Kb6 68.Rxa7 Kxa7 69.Kc5 is a winning K+P ending. 66...Rxb2+ 67.Ka3 Rb1 68.Ka2 wins the rook, or else the pawn queens. After the game continuation, 66...Rxa3 67.Kxa3 gains the "distant opposition". 67.bxa3 would be a bad mistake, leaving White with a rook pawn which leads to a draw.
