That's a good one. What's your current favorite?

I like an endgame position that has more than 8 men and one that engines can't solve.
I've used the analysis engine on chess.com for a position like this. It found mate in 17. But this is mate in 9.
Current stockfish-devel needs less than 10 seconds to solve this as #9.

For me it gets stuck on 0.00... for at least a minute. After 1. a6 it calculates mate in 8 in about three seconds.

@Trexler: I guess that means you believe you have found White's drawing procedure. If so, what do you believe is the lesson taught by this problem?
@Trexler: And in Daily Puzzle Submissions! *Be Involved*, I'm still waiting for your response to the last two positions I posted (#3074, #3077).

It was a snark, seeing that you were often called upon to resolve these endgame positions.

In the variation of g6 Kd3 is a draw and also f7 is a draw but after f8Q+? It is a win for black. Correct is also then Kd3 witha draw.
After f8Q+? follows not Kf7? ( a draw ) but Kg7! followerd by Kh6 and Kh5 with a win.
I like 2 rooks vs their King and move check move check then rock to the other side to prevent King from taking it then other rook to the side to prevent king from taking it move check move checkmate. Its a lesson you can train

How does white win after Bc3+ after Kf6?
So you have a new favorite every time. What's your all-time favorite?
