1.Rxg3! Kf1 (1…Kxg3 2.Qh3+ Kf2 3.Qf3#) then 2.Qf4+ or 2.Rxg1 -+
mark m
1. …..Rg3!!
2. Kg3 Qh3
3. Kf2 Qf3 is mate.
2. Kf2 loses the queen for a rook, and the g-pawn will cost white his remaining rook.
1. … Rxg3! 2. Kxg3? Qh3+ 3. Kf2 Qf3#
If 2. Kf2 or 2. Kf1 then 2. … Rxg1 wins
1…Rxg3+ 2. Kxg3 Qh3+ 3. Kf2 Qf3#
RxP ch, followed by Qh3 ch and mate
1…Qe2+ 2. Qf2 Rh2+ 3. Kxh2 Qxf2+ 0-1.
1. … Rxg3+
2. Kxg3 Qh3+
3. Kf2 Qf3++
Same result if 3.Kf1
1)…-Rg3+ 2)Kg3-Qh3+ 3)Kf2-Qf3# (0-1)
1)…-Rg3 2)Kg3-Qh3+ 3)Kf2-Qf3+# (0-1)
1)…-Rg3+ 2)Kg3-Qh3+ 3)Kf2-Qf3+# (0-1)
Rxg3+ followed by Qh3+ and Qf3#. If White doesn’t take the Rook, then losing the Queen for a Rook loses the game anyway. Phil
