Nd5!…
1. Nd5 Bd5
2. cd5 should win a couple of queenside pawns and/or the king’s pawn
2. …..Nf8
3. Rb6 and either the c or the a pawn will also fall, and the e pawn is still pinned and threatened.
There may be something more decisive in this position, but I don’t see it right now.
Also, if black replies with Ke5 at move one,
1. Nd5 Ke5
2. Rd7 Rd7
3. f4 Kg4
4. Nf6 also wins.
Nd5+ Bxd5 cxd5
white is attacking three pawns at the same time
1. Nd5+! BxN
2. cxB
After Nf8, White takes another pawn, Bxa
Nd5+
Mark
1.Nd5 Ke5 2.f4+ Kd6 3.e5+ Ne5 4.fe5+ Kd7 5.Nc7 Kc7 6.Bd3 followed by Bg6
There might be something with Bh3 also i think
(its little positional gain, i think, but worth a try)
well….lemme try
1. Bh3 Nf8
2. Ne2! THREATENING Nf4
(if 2…g5 then 3.f4 & so on)
2…Ke7
(if Bishop moves, black will lose the b pawn. Rook cannot leave c file. Ke5 is another variation to be discussed)
3. e5 +-
( black may move b5 or g5 here in desperation to get some active play AND HENCE WILL EVENTUALLY MAKE MISTAKES.)
