Kg5 Nd6 15. Kg6 Kc6 16. Kg7 Kc7 17. Rf8 Nc8 { spoke: Interesting endgame. Note that after 16.- Kd7? White wins, after 17.Rf8 then the N can't move to e8 } 18. Kg8 { Mekk: There were many possible traps, but you did not want to fall into any... } { spoke: interesting, that the systems is completing the game before I move to the 8th rank. Thanks for the game! } { Mekk: Deducing whether the king can move to the 8th rank does not seem very complex. I think I like it this way. Thank you too. } 1/2-1/2
