Repost __________________________________________ 7k/6p1/7p/pR6/1p2N3/6P1/2r4P/6K1 w - - 0 1 The move h4 play by hiarcs 7.32 is no blunder nor is it weak. It may be the best move in the position. It is not White that is winning in this position, but black. White best hope is for a draw, Nc5 can also hold the draw but it is not as clear. You underestimate the power of two outside connect pass pawns supported by a rook. __________________________________________ > >By the way, Rebel 10 plays the following sequence after Nc5 better than Hiarcs. > >Give that game to Rebel 10 and you'll see it plays Nc5 and play that against >Hiarcs at 40/2 - that is with Rebel playing White and Hiarcs playing black.
