In Brown-Begg, is that actually a drawn ending? Instead of Bxh4 losing, wasn't it possible to head for f8 with the king, resulting in a fortress?
Not sure about McNab-Arak.Grant. I have played this line as Black a dozen times or so but always with 8...Ne6.
Brown-Begg has to be a draw if he doesn't play ...Bxh4. Just king to f8 and B shuffles along the long diagonal forever.
