Kibitzer's Corner
Aug-23-04  rover: A very nice attack by black. He works systematically to expose white's king and just when he tries to escape to safety Nxc5 assures the success of black's plan.

Qxh2+ is a very intersting move. On Kxg4 Qxg2+ then Kf5 is met by Rc5+ Be5 Qg6 mate and Kh5 Qh3 mate. But I don't see a win after Kxg4 Qxg2+ Kh4.
