Screamer could not decide between the moves Rg4+, a6, Kc5, and Kb3. It ultimately settled for Kb3 with about at -2.79. MacChess also switched between Rg4+, a6, Kc5, Rg1. It also didn't find a draw, but I stopped between 2 and 3 minutes which I guessed as the move time. I would love to see the PV. I am assuming that tablebases make it easy (easier) to see this?
