This puzzle is pretty hard!

White can win this but it´s pretty hard to find!

    I understood the first move had to be Kd4 but I didn't analyze all the lines, too lazy😊

    I saw that Kc5 would not work because of b6+ but strangely I did not realize that Kc4 would not work either because of b5+

    Fine videos you make. But...please mention the composer of the studies. It is quite hard work to make an idea work, and there is and nerver were any substential economic reward. So at least honour these bright minds..

    Ok, but it should be posible to put the composer name and year of publikation besiddes the diagram. Plenty of space for that.

    I knew I eventually wanted to get the king on c5, but not immediately. As that wouldn't work. Keeping the black king from getting to the left was paramount though.

    5:17 But what happens if King c8? I mean it looks more interesting than c6.

    If at 7:08 black's king goes d7 instead of d6, I don't see how to win this.

    If you mean d7 instead of c6, then the bishop moves back to a7 and as soon as black moves the pawn the white pawn moves to a6 which means the black king can't move to the b file. Just like the earlier solution.

    @@michaelsodomora5439 I mean Kc6-d7 instead of Kc6-d6 at 7:08. If the bishop moves back, the king moves back. I finally found the way: Kb4-c5. In any case, I like your channel. :)

    Black king can stay in the four corner squares (a7, a8, b7, b8) for ever. There is nothing to drive him away because white has literally no piece that can attack a8. Only a stalemate is possible,
