A practical ending with a few subtleties.
White to play and win!
This one is obviously too hard :).
Here is one winning line:
1. Kc3 Ka3 2. Kc4 Ka4 3. Kd3 b5 4. g4 b4 5. Kc2 and white stops black’s pawn, but black is too far away to stop white. But black can improve with 4. Kb4.
Maybe a similar idea works for white, but I can’t find it. Someone, please put me out of my misery!
Loomis,
The winning line is
1Kc3 Ka3. 2Kc4 Ka4. 3g4 if ..b5 , Kd3 and white stroll home with a full point.
What about 1. Kc2, allowing Black to queen first, but What qeens with Check?
