  May be:
  1…b4
  2. cxb4, Bb4+
  3. Ke2, Bc3
  4. Rb1, Bxd4
  with positional advantage for Black

  I like to do it slowly:
  1… f6
  2. Nf3 h5
  Black is planing Rd7, Rd5. White simply is running out of moves.

  why not simply play h5 first since white does not have a good move anyway. no need to weaken the e6 pawn.

  1….h5

  is my vote. now white has no move except Nf3 and then Rd7 is strong.

  if Rf3 then f6

  if R on a1 moves away then Rxa2

  if the K moves then c3 is lost.

  if f4 then f6 Nf3 hxg4

  so white has no moves.

  White is paralyzed. Rc8-d8 with the idea of Rxd4+ (c3 is pinned) should stretch White’s defenses to the breaking point. White can defend d4 temporarily with Nf3, but after that, is completely reduced to pawn moves. Else lose either c3 pawn, a2 pawn or d4 pawn. White can push pawns on the Kingside, but this will only deterioriate his position further.

  Susan always give us interesting positions but unfortunately she never post the solution afterwards 🙁
