White to move. How should White proceed?
Source: ChessToday.net
1.Bxg6 hxg6
(if 1…Qxg6 2.Rg5)
2.Rg5
with the threat of 3.Rxg6+
is really “unpleasant”
as the pros use to say 😉
Bg6 and Rg5
How about
1.Bxg6…hxg (if 1….Qxg 2.Rg5)
2.Rg5…Bf5
3.gxf wins
Ivanovic? Ana Ivanovic plays chess??
Rh5..
Forcing f6 Knight and g6 pawn to move.
Bxg6 is the first thing to examine, and it seems to work.
Bxg6 Qxg6
Rg5
or
Bxg6 hxg
Rh5
1.Bxg6
1…. Qxg6/hxg6
2.Rg5 +-

i would play
1. Bxg6 first… if black plays
1 .. hxg6 your threat is better, while after
1 .. Qxg6 is worse
Me too, Rh5 looks good. Doubt I would have seen it OTB.
Bg6
