Fine-Reshevsky Knight vs Bishop Semmering 1937
This game ended in a draw in which Fine had knight and g- and h-pawns
against Reshevsky's bishop. In BASIC CHESS ENDINGS (page 215 of the original edition), Fine gives an analysis including a missed win before the knight plus two pawns vs bishop position was reached. Averbakh seems to agree that the game was drawn after that point. Anthony Saidy reviewed the new edition of BCE on Jeremy Silman's web site. I think he is claiming that an analysis by Moroney in 1970 showed this could be won, with one of the key moves being g6. Has anybody seen details of this? Maybe it could be checked using a six-man database.

This position is not part of the six man tablebases, which does not yet include
all possible six man positions. SBD

Additionally I have checked Moroney's analysis with a computer and it seems to
lead to a draw after all. So perhaps GM Benko just didn't include it, but it would of course been better to show the refutation! SBD
