Kf7
King should go quickly to the center (e6). Rook can go to f7 one mover later if needed.

Well we seem to still have a tied vote with only about 7 hours to go until the TC is reached
hopefully i will not have to invoke the provisions of Paragraph 3(b1) of the match rules and declare the game won by the dreaded ..

OK, I don't think there was a lot of difference in the 2 moves. I tried some top engines and it was pretty much a 50/50 split on which to go for. Shredder 11 was alone in recommending the curved ball Kh7...
