Endgame Study #6 - White to Move
Here's another endgame study by the composer Alexey Troitzky from 1935. It was found in the pages of 1234 Modern End-Game Studies by M.A. Sutherland and H.M. Lommer.
Black has all the pawns which might lead you to believe that he has all the winning chances. But it is White to move and Black will never get his chance if White plays correctly. Can you find the winning plan?
