I do admit to having found post #1 kind of funny. All that action happens on e8, though, not d8.
Is there anything even stronger I overlooked?
If you overlooked something, so did Tal.
So my question is…what should Keller have played, immediately before this position, instead of …R(e4)e5? It is a strong position for Black’s rook, but not until the White pawn on e7 is removed.
