Hossa should have won this game. The problem was that he always thought that he
had a big advantage and therefore exchanged to a drawn endgame. Hossa had 3
pawns and one bishop and Crafty only one bishop. Unfortunately the bishops where
on different colored squares. Nevertheless Hossa thought it had a big advantage.
What does your program say e.g. about the position after e.g. move #51:
8/8/1bB4K/5k2/7P/5P1P/8/8 w - - 0 52
Best wishes,
Steffen.
