Nimzo should try to make a passed f-pawn, a passed g-pawn or h-pawn is a trivial draw. So g2-g4? is not the way to do it. f2-f4 seems the right plan to me. Shredder reacted with ... Kf7?! where g7-g5! looks like a clear draw to me. The best white can get is a passed g-pawn, but this is not enough. White's rook is not well placed at a5, but as soon as it leaves this post, Shredder's rook is getting active. Still, also after the less convincing moves of both programs, I am sure it will be a draw. Jeroen >Without the a-pawns it looks trivially drawn.
