Jun-16-05		perfidious: This ending is only the third I've seen with BB vs N- Timman-Speelman, Linares 1992 and Delva-Soltis, from Canadian Open, c 1980 being the others.

Feb-12-07		kellmano: And this games a tragedy. White makes absolutely no progress (in fact goes backwards) until black blunders away the knight.

Jul-08-08		4tmac: Tablebase says black loses in 63 at the point of pawnless endgame. It is close to the 50 move rule till black loses his knight. Both players played fairly well and black just might have made it up to 95. ...K-h5? trapping himself. Either N-g4 or the counterintuitive K-g7 was better.
