Hi!
38...hxg4 39.hxg4 f4 40.Bb4 Kd5!
{
At first black has to correct the position of his king.
Too early actions gives white counterchances.
}
41.Ba3 {Assume white simply waits.} 41...Ke6 42.Bb4 Ne8!?
{
This is the most straightforward continuation.
}
43.Ke4 Nxd6+ 44.Bxd6 Kxd6 45.Kf5 Kd5 46.Kxg5 Kd4 47.Kf6
{but see note below} 42... e4 48.g5 exf3 49.g6 f2 50.g7 f1=Q 51.g8=Q
[D]6Q1/8/5K2/8/3k1p2/8/8/5q2 w KQkq - 0 1
{What is this position about? Does anyone with access to
tablebases know? If it is won for black, please check also other kingmoves
instead of 41.Kf6}
