1. .....Nf3
2. Kf1...I think Nf3 should wrap it up:<br /><br />1. .....Nf3<br />2. Kf1<br /><br />White will lose quickly if he takes the knight: [2.gf3 Qh3! 4.Rf6 Rg8-+]. Continuing:<br /><br />2. .....Re5!<br /><br />I actually think this move is needed. My original plan was Nxe1, but that looks a bit dicey now that I take a deeper look at it: [2. ...Ne1? 3.Bd4! Ng2 4.Rf6! Ne3! 5.Ke2 Nd5 6.Rf7 with a perpetual check draw in hand. Unless I am overlooking something, this line is forced by the mate threats white has]. 2. ...Re5 pushes the white queen back to the 1st rank, or forces white to liquidate queens at c6. It also defangs Bd4 for white. Continuing:<br /><br />3. Qd1 Ne1 and white will gain an exchange and should win.Yancey Wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16427042729449397357noreply@blogger.com
