    in side line after 43. Ke2 white is fully lost. For example:

    43...Bc3 44.Bf2 Kc2 and white can't stop the pawn from e5 without loosing a bishop

    if white play 43. Kd3 or 43.Kd1 black might need few more moves, but it's still 0:1

    Maybe it's worth thinking about 39.Be1 Ka3 40. Kb1 Bd4 and now 41. Ba5!? Bf2 42. Be8 Bb3 but it's probably also lost

    @thief1: yeah, i agree: once white's pawns start falling, the game is pretty much over.
