Puranik-Yu draw. Is that for real?

i think the draw was probably agreed on after 49...e4, and the last "move" is that thing where they put the kings in the middle of the board to signal the result.
yes of course it's drawn @OctoPinky Ke2 is NOTHING in fact you can run outta moves & lose later if you go Kf1??? as you cannot allow e3 . Kxe4 losses & wasn't played as we all know. This is the Draw a4 Kxd5 b5 Kc5 Ke2 Kb6 Ke3 Kc5 Ke2 Kb6 Ke3 ... no one can chase the pawns

Yes, now I know it too, but several online games sites had it as actually played, that's why I was surprised.

Thank you, it makes more sense now XD
Good Practice is Three Pawns for White on h2 g2 f2 & Three pawns for Black on a7 b7 & c7 & play from there . I haven't tried this vs the computer would be great to learn everything about this position vs Stockfish @OctoPinky I'll set it up now myself to learn more

I think you meant a7 b7 c7... Yes, I sometimes play against SF these kind of "exercises" or positions marked as "win" or "draw" from GM games, great learning tool.
