    And if 1… Bxg5? I don’t think that’s a draw then :)

    Such a tricky study!

    1.Rh8 Kg7 2.Bh7 g5 3.Bf5 Kh8 4.Bg4 =

    Reaching a fortress since White can control each of c7, d6, and e5 from two squares - no zugzwangs.

    Beutiful study
    White has to give a piece and the only way to draw is to give the strongest (the Rook)

Got something to say?
