suggestion: publish certain number of examples from Awerbakh per day 🙂 there are 4000 of them or so… in 3-4 years we will all be master-level skilled in endgames
shoulder-charging: 1 kf5 wins, everything else draws
1 Kf5 Kg2 2 h5 Kh3 3 Kg5 Kh2 4 Kg6 wins. Does black have any defense after 1 Kf5? Nope. So is Kf5 a unique solution? 1 Kg5 Kg2 2 Kg6 Kh3 3 h5 Kg4! holds for black (3…Kh4 ?? 4 h3 wins for white). 1 Kf5 does seem to be the only win for White. Congrats to anonymous 9:02 PM

If white to play promote queen (check) and wins.
If black to play, promote queen with check and win.
A sidenote: FEN should contain the fullmove number for the NEXT single move. In other words, a FEN with move number 0 (zero) is incorrect.
