Slate last night the Web voted for 38....Kg7 but two days ago I knew of this
possibility since it was the best continuation for black, therefore, I started
to search possible continuation lines for GTII and noticed that with 39. Kf3
GTII will end up losing after 16 more moves, but with 39.Bxb3 even if the score
reflect slower then with 39.Kf3 at the beggining GTII will end up Drawing the
game.
