Earlier in the game I played h6?? instead of Rf7.
After Rf7, Rf7 blacks king can go to h4 and draw. Same holds for Rd2.

[d] 5r2/5Pkp/p7/8/p5P1/P2p2KP/1P3R2/8 b - - 3 45

The move 45 ... h6 seems to me a wasted tempo.

You may try games with short time not fixed depth. As lots of factors affect the depth of an engine. You may try 1min+1sec games to begin with.

Yeah, also, if you're on mobile you can download a "7men Lomonosov Tablebases" application (that uses my curved arrows for Knight moves :mrgreen: ) where you can input any position with 7 pieces or less and it tells you if it's drawn or not, and how many moves to mate. If you only care about game r...

Hi,

Following an online game, this pawn endgame happened :
