 | | WannaBe: <Fgomezpimientah> Boy that's a hard name to type... (Have to copy/paste your name from now...) Yes, 0-1 means black won... Before I try to answer your why not Rxd5, let us examine the board... White has Q, R, N, B, 4 pawns.
Black has Q, R, B, N, 4 pawns.
Even material. The pawn is threatening both the Q and N. You can't protect them both. (Unless you take with the R, like you are proposing) Here is what I think will happen...
25. Rxd5 Nb6!
 click for larger viewNow the N got the Q and R forked. You probably want to move the queen, and lose the R. Even if Q moves to c3, the N would still take, because Q is backing the N. So you would have this...  click for larger viewNow, white just lost a R. |

Jan-24-06 | | EmperorAtahualpa: By the way, another possible line I think is 25.Rxd5 Nb6 26.Rd6+ (discovered check) Nxc4 27.Rxc6 Rxe4 and Black is a knight down instead of a rook. Of course, this still loses for Black, but nitpicky as I am I just wanted to point it out. :) |

Jan-24-06 | | shirova: <EmperorAtahualpa> I guess you are saying White still lost instead of Black lost. |

Jan-25-06 | | EmperorAtahualpa: <I guess you are saying White still lost instead of Black lost.> Damn, I make that mistake all the time! :) Thanks, <shirova>. |

Jan-28-06 | | Fgomezpimientah: Dear friends:
First of all, I promiss to change my name. Second, after Nb6, why not Rxc5, (Discovered check, and winning a Pawn),n this line I think white may end with two pawns for a knight. Please consider I have been away from "the board" for a long time, and I appreciate a lot your comments.
To Emperor Atahualpa, who I assume is from South America, your comment regarding my last name is correct, Pimienta in Spanish, as I am sure you kmow,means Pepper.
Best Regards to all.
