Oct-11-06		syracrophy: I think that the threat is 37.Qb7, with a winning position as the queen and rook are dominating the 7th rank, and the king is unprotected, and it's just a matter of technique <36...Qc5?? 37.Qe6+ Kh8 <37...Kf8 38.Qf7#> 38.Qf6+ Kg8 39.Qg7#>

Oct-11-06		TrueFiendish: How about 37.Qh6?

Oct-12-06		syracrophy: <TrueFiendish: How about 37.Qh6?> Thanks! A much better move than my 37.Qb7. 37.Qh6! with unstoppable mating threats on g7 and h7 and if 36...Rf8 37.Qh6 Rf7 38.Rd8+ Rf8 39.Rxf8#

Oct-13-06		TrueFiendish: Yeah, black's all crossed up on the sixth and seventh ranks, can't move anything anywhere.

Oct-13-06		syracrophy: <TrueFiendish> Yes. A rook on the 7th rank "has all the power of the world", as somebody once said
