The conjecture is: among the winning moves the opponent would get if you would skip your turn (if there would be at least one), there is a move that is winning for you (in the current position!).
I can't think of any obvious counter-example. Any idea? :)
Yes, sorry, i've forgot to rule out that case. About it being already proven, are you thinking to the "mustplay" regions papers? I don't think it is exactly the same thing.
