Every Saturday an endgame study is published at ChessVibes, selected by IM Yochanan Afek: player, trainer, endgame study composer and writer. A week later the solution is published. Good luck with the instructional occupation of solving a study!

White to play and draw
Next week the solution.
Solution last week:
No way white is going to win this.
The study is: White to play and draw! It is also not composed by Korolkov, but by Matous.
I agree, there is only an quite easy draw with
1.Nd4 Bxb5 (1… f2 2. Rb1) 2.Nxf3
Thx Luc, you’re right, and it’s corrected now.
@Thorex
But how to draw after 1…f2 2. Rb1 Ne1…?
@peter:
Oops, i must admit that i neither saw nor checked that possibility. Well, not that easy at all…
