Go up one level in this thread



Here are the book variations for # 600.

Timman vs Vogel (Netherlands,1974)

1.f5 Kg7 [..exf5 2.Kf2 Kg7 3.Ke3 Kf7 4.Kf4 Ke6 5.h4 h5
6.g3 d5 7.cxd5 Kxd5 8.Kf5 Kd4 9.g4 hxg4 9.Kxg4 +-]
2.Kf2 Kf7 [ ..d5 3.fxe6 dxc4 4.Kf3 f5 5.Kf4 Kf6 6.e7+-]
3.Kf3 Ke7 4.Ke4 h5 5.h4 Kf7 6.fxe6 Kxe6 7.Kf4 1:0

You mention Hiarcs as good choice for analysing this. I've
also noticed that in many computer vs computer games that Hiarcs
will often convert an apparent drawing endgame into a win. I'm
guessing that it has a fair amount of endgame knowledge.

As many programs are now fairly equal, good endgame play will
snare many an extra SSDF rating point, as it appears more games
are reaching endgame positions.
