{ The Wrong Way.|White to move and win. } 1. Nd3 $2 { Too soon. Better is
Kb4.|White's plans to abandon the defense of his f-pawn, and reconstitute
his defense where his knight is on d7 after Nd3-c5-d7. The white king may
then approach and win the black pawns at his leisure. } 1... f6 { What happens if
you opponent does not make the obvious move, in this case, 1... Kxf4? Black
realizes that white's most threatening pawn is his e-pawn. So he moves to
eliminate it rather than the less threatening pawn that white offers freely. } 2. exf6 Kxf6 3. Kb4 Kg5 4. Nf2 e5 5. Kc4 e4 6. Kd4 Kf4 { White cannot make
progress. } 7. Nxe4 Kxg4 { Draw. } *
