A King and Pawn Ending from ChessBase
The following position is offered as a little puzzle on the ChessBase news site.
It's Black to move in the game Litwak-Savchenko, played a couple of weeks ago in an under-tournament at Dortmund, and after 53...Kc5 54.Kf2 Kd6 the players agreed to a draw. Was anything better available to either player? You'll find the answer here, by endgame maven GM Karsten Müller.
