You mean Bf6+? That’s the correct first move. How do you continue after …Kh7?

ck_ ( @ck_@discuss.tchncs.de ) 1•1 year agoRf7 wins a piece, doesn’t it? After that it’s just a matter of technique, as they say.

Would be the line I’m thinking
All good so far, but the line continues. Black still has a tricky defensive idea up its sleeve.
ck_ ( @ck_@discuss.tchncs.de ) 1•1 year agoNo clue to be honest. I mean, you either move the Knight and loose the Bishop or the other way round. There are no immediate forks on the board and I see no stalemate tricks either.
You can of course play for Knight forks, but with the king being so far away from the pieces, that would be pushing it as a defensive resource.
ck_ ( @ck_@discuss.tchncs.de ) 1•1 year agoSo you end up with Rook and Bishop vs Knight or Rook and Bishop vs Bishop, both of which should be winning. I can of course imagine myself drawing those by screwing up the 50 moves, but that’s about it.
After 4…Nc6 5. Bxd8 Black has a nifty intermediate move which is still losing but makes things a bit less simple.
ck_ ( @ck_@discuss.tchncs.de ) 1•1 year agoAre you referring to Kg7 Re8 … ?
I mean anything other than Re8 is a one move blunder, so should be easy enough to see, but yeah, Rook vs Knight is unclear.
