Position #5 Here is the analysis given in Chess Life k7/pp6/8/P7/3K4/P7/P4B2/8 w - - M. Hasanov - B. Borisov (Russia, 1995) 1. a4 Kb8 2. Kd5 Ka8 3. Kd6 Kb8 4. Kd7 Ka8 5. Bh4(I think Bg3 works also. Not Kc8 as b7! draws) Kb8 6. Bd8 Ka8 7. Kc8 b6 8. a6 b5 9. a5 b4 10. Bb6 b3 11. a2xb3 a7xb6 12. b4 and mates New Position #6 8/Bpk5/8/P2K4/8/8/8/8 w - - id "Paulsen - Metzer"; bm Kd4; This is also from the same Chess Life article. The win is given as: 1. Kd4! (Kc4 b7-b5+ or Kc5 b7-b6+ are drawing positions) Kc6 2. Bb6 Kd6 3. Kc4 Kc6 4. Kb4 Kd6 5. Kb5 Kd7 6. Kc5 Kc8 7. Ba7! Kd7 8. Bb8 Here Rebel 8 seems to want to play Kd4 as it gets the (+) indicator during analysis but at 15:00 it still likes Kc5. The cache fills up quickly here so I wonder if it is hitting a wall at 30 ply?
