Finally, putting on the task at my full strength I could get a draw from Colossus X running on my fastest computer. I got profit from the fact that Colossus allowed me an ending where my king was occupying the H rank against a pawn by Colossus in the same rank, so he was not capable of promoting and it was a draw. Curiously, in my full life I had never seriously or even shallowly studied endings, this specific trick is the only one I know......
BTW Colossus was searching at around half a million moves a second, one minute 30 seconds average time for each move.
Well, still some neurons on work regards.
