There are now Bishops of opposite colour, but nevertheless White has an easily-won game.
| 31. K - B 2 |
| 31. ........ | P - Q 5 |
Practically forced. Otherwise the White King would march up to Q 4 and then to B 5 and win Black's Queen's side Pawns. If Black attempted to stop this by putting his King at Q B 3 then the White King would enter through K 5 into Black's King's side and win just as easily.
| 32. P × P | K - Q 4 | |
| 33. K - K 3 | B - K 3 | |
| 34. K - Q 3 | K - B 3 | |
| 35. P - Q R 3 | B - B 5 ch | |
| 36. K - K 3 | B - K 3 | |
| 37. B - R 6 |
It is better not to hurry P - K Kt 4 because of P - B 4; for although White could win in any case, it would take longer. Now the White King threatens to help by going in through K B 4 after posting the Bishop
at Kt 7, where it not only protects the Q P, but indirectly also the Q Kt P.

| 38. B - Kt 7 | Resigns. |
