Solution of yesterday:
33. e5 Rf5!? Strange this move is not considered..
This day:
Perhaps: 1. Rb1 Nd5 2. Nxd5 Qxb1 3. Nxe7+ Kh8 4. Ng5 Be6 5. Qg4
Any ideas?
I like the Rb1 idea, too. Perhaps we need a preparing move to prevent this annoying 1…Nd5.
For example:
1.Kf2. What are the possibilities for Black? The queen can’t move, there is no way to free it, so Black should create a counter-threat. Perhaps:
1… a4 2.Rb1 Qxb1 (I don’t see an alternative) 3.Nxb1 axb4 and we should have a solid advantage.
Even after:
1…Bf5 we have 2. Ne1 and I think we win the queen for a rook and bishop.
what about 1. Na4 ??
1.Na4 is strong indeed.
I like R d 8 or R b1
