2knightsking vs pawnking endgame

Sort:
darnok87

this is called to be the second trotsky line, and if black pawn is blocked by knight on or behind this line, white can force win within 50moves despite position of other pieces(b and g pawn in about 99% of  possible positions)

 

 

 

 

But look at this position, conditions are ok but my tablebases show that with best play mate is done in 60 moves! And i am asking, why is that, 2nd trotsky line is wrong?

Troitzky's line is about which positions can be won at all, not won within 50 moves. There are many winning positions in this ending where the best line takes more than 50 moves.

u are saying about 1st trotsky line, this is second, which is suppose to guarantee mate within 50 moves
