    All I can think of is 1. Nf6+ Bxf6 2. Bxh3 Rh2 but not sure how to proceed after that.

    “I got the solution pwnage”

    Sadly that’s only a childish trap ;-)

    Black can simply move his bishop. Perhaps even 2. …Bxc3 is possible. If white takes then black will get a queen and an easy draw – OTB perhaps even more. If white declines, things are not clear to me. Of course black will queen, so we have to come up with a queenking fork or a mate. But I don’t see how white could achieve this. I do it like Aronian in complicated positions and “throw in the towel”.

    thorex id love to see u do better
    2 peces rook and more pawns is better than queen genious

    @bob
    Of course it’s technically not winnable for black. But I spoke of “OTB” (over the board). To coordinate a rook and two minors is much more exhausting than nice check/fork calculations for a queen.

    Well, we’ll have the answer shortly, but since this is a true puzzle I think there must be a better option…
