My intuition (guesswork) agrees with Bob Hyatt. Specifically: 1. White's bishop must cover the a2-g8 diagonal before the White King releases to g6. 2. White pawns aren't that far apart, so Black's King shuttle (Ke7, Kf8) is a problem. 3. On g6, White king controls f6 which is the only square available for Black bishop to simultaneously cover d8 and h8. Any draw claim would have to refute the following: 1... Be5 2. d7 Bc7 3. Bf5 Bd8 4. Be6 Ke7 5. Kg6 Kxe6 6. h7
