Which side is better? Tell me their names and I’ll look up their ratings and let you know which is better.
But seriously… I think white stands better with Qxg5. Black’s reply must be to guard the d8 rook so lets have black play Rd7 which protects the bishop on d5. I’d then be tempted to play f6 as white but not sure how to continue.
This position looks like there are many traps in it
1,Rxd5 Rxd5
2,Qxg5 Qa8 or Qc8
3,Qf6+ and mate will follow
Black can opt not to take Rd5, but suffers a great material loss.
Sorry if this is incorrect. I will just try again!
Wow, you get enough spam on your site. I like Rxd5 as well.
If you are bored, any input on my heartbreaking positional crumble would be appreciated

This game was from the 1988 Olympiad (Hungary vs. China). You were white and won. Am I correct?

Rook takes bishop, and the White Queen cannot be captured.
I would prefer
1. Qxg5
And now
1… Bxe2 2. Qxe8#
1… Rcd7 2. Rxe5 with Qg7 mate threat black loses heavy material
1… Rdd8 2. Rxe5 with Qg8 mate threat
1… Qc8 2. Qf6+ and mate threat at g7
