Since it is not clear at all that White can even win the >f-pawn in the 1st place, a win seems highly doubtful to me. Dieter asked me to post this, so here is my effort against Yace on ICC: [Event "?"] [Site "?"] [Date "2004.01.18"] [Round "?"] [White "Yace-Author"] [Black "Yace-Author"] [Result "*"] [ICCResult "Game in progress"] [Time "15:51:05"] [SetUp "1"] [FEN "8/8/5pk1/5b2/7K/3R3p/7P/8 w - - 0 1"] 1. Rd1 Be6 2. Re1 Bf5 3. Rg1+ Kf7 4. Kh5 Be4 5. Kg4 Bg2 6. Re1 Kg6 7. Ra1 f5+ 8. Kf4 Kf6 9. Ra6+ Ke7 10. Kxf5 Kd7 11. Kf4 Ke7 12. Ke5 Kd7 [D]8/3k4/R7/4K3/8/7p/6bP/8 w - - Now the d5 square is in the way to making progress, so the position is a draw.
