May-08-11  Whitehat1963: Is this an incomplete score, or (more likely) is there a brilliant threat I'm not even beginning to see?
May-08-11  Ghuzultyy: <Whitehat1963>
There is a brilliant threat.
After 22...Bxc6 23.dxc6

White threathens 24.c7. Black can't play 24...Qxc7 because 25.Nd5+ is coming.

Also white threathens 24.Nd5+ followed by 25.Qxf6+

It seems really hard to defend.

May-08-11  Whitehat1963: Thanks, <Ghuzultyy>. And I assume that if black plays 22...Be8 or 22...Rc8 that white next plays 23. Rc1?
May-08-11  Whitehat1963: Oh, wait. Never mind. The real threat is 23. Bxd6+ Qxd6 24. Rxd6 Kxd6 25. Qxf6+.
