The game saw: 75.d8=Q+?? Kxd8 76.Kxd5 Kc7 - a simple draw.
Winning was 75.Kxd5 Kxd7 76.b6 Kd8 (76...Kc7 loses a move quicker) 77.Kd6 Kc8 78.Kc6 etc.
This pathetic finish meant I ended the tournament on +3=3-3 for a thoroughly undeserved Fide rating gain of 4.4 elo.
Turning to more pleasant things, I walked yesterday afternoon around the lake from Bad Wiessee to Gmund.
Many of the larger houses in this area have murals on their outside walls in a similar manner to the famous ones at Garmisch-Partenkirchen, which is less than 40 miles away.

The one in the photo above, which shows an old man journeying with an infant on his shoulder,  seems to be an allegory for how an old year gives way to the new.
