Guess who was >it. :-) I agree with Gandalf (and with Dan). I think it's at least a drawish position. It's not the evaluation that wasn't right, but it went wrong with the move 84..Kg3 by Gandalf. After 84...Kg3 85. Qg8 black can't contain the white king to prevent it running to the other side of the board, either attacking the black pawns or hiding with it's queen. With Ke3 the black queen has coverage after Qg8 Qd4+ Kc2 Qd3+. But maybe you knew this already. Correct me if I'm wrong. Nevertheless, I think endgame study is much more interesting than opening lines :) Thanks for posting it and make me crunch my braincells. (yuk) :) J. 70... Ka6-b5 71. Qa3-b3+ Kb5-c5 72.
