zb2cr: Black arranges the win of a key tempo by sacrificing his Rook to ensure he moves his Knight with check. 25. ... Ra1+; 26. Kxa1, Nc3+ and now White can only uselessly interpose his Queen: 27. Q(a4-a5-a6), 27. RxQ#.

zb2cr: <Bartimeus>, <Stev.PAtzer>, <dfcx>, <Moonwalker>, <Gregor Samsa Mendel>, <HowDoesTheHorsieMove>, <M. Hassan>, <SuperPatzer77>, <agb2002>, <SamAtoms1980>, <gofer>, and <mistreaver> between them do a very good job ...

zb2cr: Okay, the first thought I had was 32. Qxg6+. Black plays 32. ... fxg6 (if 32. ... Qg7??; 33. Qxg7#). White then clears the line of his Bishop with 33. f7+, Qxf7 (forced); 34. Rh8#. Mate in 3, almost completely forced all the way. Even my limited board vision can see this!

zb2cr: I missed this one--I saw 24. Ne7+, but was unable to see my way through all variations.

zb2cr: To <FSR>,
I'm not convinced about your line. After 28. Qxf3, Nxc7 leaves Black up
by a piece, and White can't immediately get his Rook into action.

| |
|
zb2cr: No Queen sacrifice on Monday! How exciting! 23. Nxe6+ wins Black's Queen--if not from the fork, then if 23. ... fxe6; 24. Qxc7. At this point, White has Q+P vs. R, and may be able to force mate in 10 moves or so.

zb2cr: White's a piece up after 34. Qxg7+, Bxg7; 35. Rxg7+, Kh8; 36. Rxf7+, Kg8: 37. Rxb7.

zb2cr: Black has the obvious mate at g7 protected. So, 24. Qxh7+ with mate in 3.
