Sep-13-24  King.Arthur.Brazil: The king saw this combination: 18. Rxc5 dxc5 19. Bxc5+ (Qxc5 20. Nd7+ Ke8 21. Nxc5 win the enemy's ♕, you know I love it). 19... Ke8 20. Qxe6+ Kd8 21. Nf7+ Qxf7 22. Qxf7 with the same advantage. So, refusing: 28... Qd8 19. Qxe6 Qe7 20. Qf5+ Nf6 21. Rxa5 Re8 22. O-O with one extra piece and attack.
Sep-13-24  King.Arthur.Brazil: After the forced: 25...Qb7, don't follow with 26. Rb1? Qxd5+ 27. Qxd5 Nxd5 28. Kxd5 yet still with advantage, but instead: 26. Bb5+ (Kf8 27. Qf7# or Qxb5 27. Qxe7# or Kd8 27. Nf7#) Nc6 27. Bxc6+ Qxc6 28. Qxe7#. Beautiful attack!
