xombie(1916) whispers: and checks will lead to acceleration of loss for black
44...g6 (1:26) 45.Kg3 (0:23)
LaurentiuI(1790) whispers: Rb3 and a check to get to the a file looks like the best plan
Aneirin(1725) whispers: yes, should be a relaxed victory for the small kitten.
xombie(1916) whispers: its a lot easier with two pawns
xombie(1916) whispers: i wonder if it was winning with only one pawn

xombie(1916) whispers: allowing g5 was unfortunate for black
49.Ke4 (0:45)
xombie(1916) whispers: huh

58...Kg4 (0:07)
Aneirin(1725) whispers: oh
LaurentiuI(1790) whispers: a+g isn't even a theoretical ending, it's f+h that is drawn, sometimes
Aneirin(1725) whispers: it seems so unlikely that a+g would draw
Aneirin(1725) whispers: they're so far apart :)
smallblackcat(1987) whispers: damn, what have I done
LaurentiuI(1790) whispers: it's very tricky to give a definite assesment
Aneirin(1725) whispers: I would have prefered that above this
LaurentiuI(1790) whispers: Ra6
LaurentiuI(1790) whispers: he's okay
milpat(1786) whispers: yea Ra6 to force Kh5

HyperMagnus(2088) whispers: Ra6 Ra1
Koff(1952) whispers: Ra6 Ra1
Aneirin(1725) whispers: hehe
milpat(1786) whispers: ok :)
LaurentiuI(1790) whispers: 56. Ra4 was bad
HyperMagnus(2088) whispers: it was all ok
LaurentiuI(1790) whispers: there was just no sense to that move
HyperMagnus(2088) whispers: he just needed to play Kf3
LaurentiuI(1790) whispers: why let the black king become active?
