The following position is a critical endgame that might be forced, except GMs differ as to the assessment. Some think white will win, others think it is a sweep for black and his pawns will promote before white's h pawn can achieve the same goal. I have studied the position quite a bit with Fritz 5.32, but Fritz is often a bit blind to the promotion threat of white's h pawn. I intend to pound it overnight with Crafty 16.12 and the 4-man tablebases. If someone else has the 5-man pieces that might help. Dr. Hyatt's machine would be nice. ;) Or better yet, ask Roman to help us decide- who wins this endgame?!? :) The fate of the game can hinge on it, and if black is winning here then the World may win as well. 8/1p1kpQ2/1pnp4/5pB1/4q3/7P/1b3PP1/5RK1 b - -
