1, gxh6 Nxc2
2. Rxg7+
now if 2… Kf8, a possible line is:
3. Ne5 Qxe5
4. dxe5 Nb4
5. R1g1 Bd8
6. Bg6 Re7
7. Bh5 f5
8. Rg8+ Kf7
9. h7
1-0
or if 2… Kh8
3. Rh7+ Kg8
4. Rg1+ Bg5
5. Rxg5+ Kf8
6. Ne5 Ke7
7. Rxf7+
and 8. Rxd7+ wins
Think I made a mistake in the previous solution.
After
1. hxg6 Nxc2
2. Rxh7+ Kf8
3. Ne5 Qxe5
4. dxe5 Nb4
5. R1g1 Bd8
6. Bg6
now if 6… Re7
7. Bh5 f6/f5
8. Rg8+ Kf7
9. R1g7#
of if 6…. fxg6
7. R1xg6 any
8. Rg8+ Kf7
9. R6g7#
1.Ne5 Nxc2
2.g5xh6 Nb4
3.Rg7+ Kh8(.. Kf8 White can have 4.Rxf7+ Kg8 5.h7+ Kh8 6.Kg6#)
4.Nf7#
Bh7+ Kf8
gxh NxQ
hxg#
Bh7+ Kh8
gxh NxQ
Rxg7 any
Be4 any
Rh7+ Kg8
Rd1-g1+ Kf8

1) gxh6, …;
Black has a much more stubborn defense to 1. gh in 1…g6. Now 2. Qd2 N:d3 3. Q:d3 begins an assault on the g-pawn that will probably be successful, but the game becomes trench warfare rather than an opportunity for brilliance.
