f5
Don’t see a tactic, but the following should win:
1. Qe7 RxR
2. QxR+ Kg7
3. Bd4+ Nxd4 (forced)
4. Qxd4+
and 5. Qxc4
f5 exf5
Bf6 Nd2
Rxe8 Qxe8
Bxd2
trying to to target that g7 square. get my bishop on h6 and queen on f6. then go in and have a feeding frenzy.. isnt that what predators do.. feed on fresh red meat..
such a great tactic indeed! ^_^
I like
1. f5!!
There is a cute variant
1. .. Rxd8 2. Qxd8+ Kg7 3. f6 mate
So, if black takes the pawn
1. .. exf6 2. Bh6!
and I see no way how black can prevent 3. Qe7! or 3. Qf6.
A nice example how to exploit the weaknesses on the black squares if the defensive bishop is missing.
f5 eXf
Bh6 threatening Qe7 and Qf6.
Black cannot parry both.
Both 1.f5 and 1.Qe7 wins.
But 1.f5 leads to mate.
1.Qe7 Rxe8+ 2.Qxe8+ Kg7 3.Bd4+ Nxd4 4.Qxd4+ wins the c4 pawn= easy win.
1.f5 exf5 (1…gxf5 2.Qg5+ Kf8 3.Qh6+ Ke7 4.Bg5+ mates or 3…Kh8 4.Qf6 mates) 2.Qf6 leads to mate. Potential queen checks are powerless to prevent Bh6 and Qg7#. Note that the rook is taboo after 1.f5 because of mate in 2 2.Qxd8+ Kg7 3.f6#. Also 1.f5 h5 is of no use after 2.Qf6.
It seems to me that 1.f5 ef5 2.Bh6 with the idea of Qe7 wins.
may be f5
1.Qe7! Rd8: 2.Qd8:+ Kg7 3.Bd4+ Nd4: (else mate on h4 or g7) 4.Qd4:+ and 5.Qc4:
Or is there something better or more forcing?
