easy…. Bd6+, Nf5+, Rh6+
1. Bd6+ Kd6 (Kf6 Ng4+ captures queen)
2. Nf5+ ef
3. Ra3+ (black loses queen)
1. bd6+
This wins black’s queen in exchange for a the knight/bishop pair. Here are the lines:
1. bd6+, Kxd6
2. Nf5+, e6xf5
3. Ra6+ (winning the queen and the endgame)
OR
1. bd6+, Kf6
2. Ng4+ (winning the queen)
1. Bd6 Kxd6 (or Kf6, but loses to Ng4+)
2. Nf5+ exf5
3. Ra6+

1. Nd5+! exd5
2. Bd6+! Kxd6
3. Ra6+ nice….
Error in my previous analysis. Let’s change the move order, since after 2. Bd6+, the queen can take on d6.
So…
1. Bd6+! Kxd6
(if Kf6 Ng4+)
2. Nf5+ exf5
(or else lose the queen)
3. Ra6+ bags the queen.
First glance.. 1. Bd6+
if 1….Kxd6, 2.Nf5+, exf5, and finally 3. Ra6+ winning the queen and the game..
If 1 … Kf6, 2. Ng4+ and the queen is gone.. quite cool tactic. 🙂
1.Bd6+,KxB
2.Nf5+,PxN
3.Ra6+, Black loses Queen
too obvious.
Bd6+ Kxd6
Nf5+ exf
Ra6+ K moves

1. Bd6+
… Kf6 2. Ng4+
… Kxd6 2. Nf5+ exf5 3. Ra6+
1. Bd6+ Kd6 (1… Kf6 2. Ng4 +-) 2. Nf5+ exf5 3. Ra6+ wins the queen 1-0
1. Bd6+
if 1… Kxd6
2. Nf5+ exf5
3. Ra6+
1-0
and 1… Kf6, 2. Ng4+ wins as well.
