Well, I think the sulution is: 1. Qd6+ Qxd6 and 2. E8Q+
1.Qd6!! Qd6 2.e8D Ke8 3.Nd6 Ke7 4.Nc4 Ng3 5.Kf2 Nh1 6.Kg2 e3 7. Ne3 +- Great study by Kubbel! (as many others of his, indeed). The knight fork pattern is neat, but the important trick lies in the unability of the black knight to escape.
I’ve just read that Karen Asrian, a member of the armenian olympic team passed away…:-(
Armenia’s leading Grand Master Karen Asrian, aged 28, died today. According to our data, Asrian had a heart attack while driving a car.
Karen Asrian won the title of Armenia’s champion for three times. He also earned gold medals during a 2006 Olympiad held in Turin.
A1+ extends condolences to the Karen’s relatives and friends over his untimely decease.
