A neat trick to know
Although we learn various ideas in chess as we go along, putting them into practice is often harder. In the given position it is Black to play and draw. Now having told you the result of the game, it shouldn't take you long to work out the only sensible way for Black to draw the game. The challenge is to find the moves that make it happen.

It´s a nice puzzle, but very easy if you know the opposite colour bishop idea.
Lee.
That is 1.g4 hg 2.h3 hg 3.gh fg=
Lee.
1. ... b5 2. Bxb5 g4 3. hxg4 fxg4 4. Bish anywhere g3 and then black will move h3 next move and the draw is attained.
both variations suck.
g4 one after your variation there is a pawn on g4 after 4. hxg4 so this is absolutely lost for black
the b5 Variation not to mention . first of all in your variation bish anywhere whatss about Bd7 ooops.
second u dont have to take on b5 . So i dont say b5 is the wrong move but give the real lines
so here it coms aussies
1....b5 after 2.BxB5 g4 3.hxg4 fxg4 now if 4.Bd7 then 4...h3 gxh3 5. g3 and the king is on the diagonal so over for white .
this rules out 4.bd7 so 4.bf1 is to be considered after which black draws with 4... g3 5.ANYTHING followed by 5...h3 6.hxg3 now the bishop cant get on the diagonal d7 h3 so the pawn has to take which ends in an know picture black king on h8 and draw becaus h8 is black and bishop is white pawn on file best wishes from germany
oppps
6. gxh3 sorry typo in the comment above
And if after b5 Kmove blacks king approaches white pawns c ya
sand to make it totally correct afte 4.be2 follows h3 if now white moves g3 h2 and over so
And to make it really complete: If the white king tries to take care of the b-pawn (1.-b5 2.Kc5), black gets to play Kf6-e5-f4 and the rest should be easy.
nice puzzle but backing up what lee said, it is easy if you know the idea
