| |
| arenafootball9: Don't want to add to the confusion(sorry chessgames) but when the king was originaly on g8, before "gprice" somehow saw that the score was wrong, Nf6 looked like a forced endgame with white up a pawn. For those of us who checked the puzzle early it seemed viable. |

| arenafootball9: I also looked at nf6+ with similar threats of having the pawn gone, empowering the bishop, and possible queen pins with the second rook. Any lines winning or losing? |

| arenafootball9: ..c4 is a key move but I think Rxb3 might be the best first move. I saw.. axb3, Qb4 then..fxe5, Bxe5,..Qe1? (what else) then Be6 making bunkbed bishops...cant see another move for Black-Then c4 seems unstoppable. This was my initial thought and I think it forces more lively ... |
