sight, fatigue takes its toll. White needs to know how to draw if Black's pawn
is on a3 or a2. The latter is easy to deal with as White need only keep his
rook on the a-file to confine the Black rook on a1. Almost important the White
king needs to stay on g2 and h2 to avoid the trick that occurs in the game.
When Black's king reaches b3 White checks on the b-file and then returns with
the rook to the a-file. Black makes it tougher on White by leaving the pawn on
a3 keeping a2 free for his king. In this case defending by keeping the rook on
the a-file does not work as Black's king makes it to a2 freeing his rook.
White's king is much far away and he loses. The correct way to defend,
discovered over 100 years ago by Vancura, is to put the White rook on his
third rank, again tying down Black's rook. When Black's king reaches b4 White
checks repeatedly preventing Black's rook from being freed.} (52. Kf3 a2 (52...
