  DaltriDiluvi: Maybe <45...Kd7> would have been a better try than <45...Kf7>? The position after <45...Kd7 46.Bxe5? fxe5 47.Rxe5> is a tablebase draw.

  Honza Cervenka: 21...Ke8!! would have been killer.

<DaltriDiluvi> 45...Kd7 would not have allowed white to transfer the game into elementary winning Rook ending but the position leaves hardly any doubts about the outcome, for example 45...Kd7 46.Kc2 Rd5 47.Kb3 Ke6 48.Kb4 f5 49.b3 e4 50.a4 bxa4 51.bxa4 Rd8 52.a5 Rb8+ 53.Ka4 Kd5 54.Bd2 Rb2 55.Bf4 Kc6 (55...Rf2 is too slow and allows 56.a6) 56.Rc1+ Kb7 57.Rc7+ Ka6 58.Rc6+ Kb7 59.Rf6 Ra2+ 60.Kb4 Rb2+ 61.Ka3 Re2 62.a6+ Ka7 63.Kb4 Rb2+ 64.Kc3 Re2 65.Be5 Ra2 66.Bd4+ Kb8 67.a7+ Kc8 68.Rxf5 etc.
