  1. Position 1: Gold to move loses in four
  2. 2g Rb2e Rc2e Re6n Re5n; Forced
  3. The first two steps are clearly forced. Rd6e as a final step loses to h->d8.
  4. 2s Re6s ef6w ee6e Re7s; The only winning move. This is a 4 for two step trade, which is almost universally a bad thing to do, but here gold only has two good steps.
  5. (
  6. 2s Re6s ef6w ee6e rc6s
  7. 3g Re5n Hc8e Hd8w re8w
  8. 3s Re6s ef6w ee6e rd8e
  9. ); silver loses the repetition fight now.
  10. 3g Re6n Re5n; This is the only thing gold can do; his other two steps are worthless, and unfortunately he is first to repeat position and is therefore losing the repetition fight.
  11. 3s Re6s ef6w ee6e Re7s
  12. 4g Hc8e Hd8w re8w Re6n
  13. 4s rd8e rc6s rc5s rc4w
  14. 5g Hc8e Hd8w re8w Re5n
  15. 5s rb4s rb3s rb2s
  16. Position 2: Gold wins in 5
  17.  
  18. 2g Rb2e Rc2e Re6n Re5n; Forced
  19. 2s Re6s ef6w ee6e Re7s; Other silver moves still lose the same way, but this move is no longer winning. The key is that gold now DOES have use for all four of his steps. There are a lot of ways for gold to win.
  20.  
  21. 3g Dh1w Dg1n Re6n Re5n; This is it. Gold is moving to f4 to unfreeze the f5 rabbit and there is nothing for silver to do about it.
  22. 3s Re6s ef6w ee6e Re7s Other moves can't delay longer.
  23. 4g Re6n Re5n Dg2n Dg3w
  24. 4s Re6s ef6w ee6e Re7s
  25. 5g Df3n Re6n Re5n Rf5w
  26. 5s ef6s Re6e df7e Cf8s
  27. 6g Cf7n Cf8e Rf6n Rf7n
