Jun-21-25  mel gibson: I saw that but Stockfish 17 declines the Bishop and then says it's close to a draw:

15. Bxh5

(15. Bxh5 (1.Bxh5 Qd6 2.Bf3 f5 3.h5 fxe4 4.Nxe4 Qe5 5.hxg6 Nxf3 6.gxf3 Bd4 7.g7 Ba6+ 8.Ke1 Kxg7 9.Qb3 Rf5 10.d6 exd6 11.Rg1+ Kh8 12.Kd2 Bxe3+ 13.Qxe3 Rh5 14.Rg6 Qd5+ ) +0.12/40 139)

score for White +0.12 depth 40.

if I force SF to accept the Bishop it's mate in 17:

15. Bxh5 gxh5

16. Bxd4 (16. Bxd4 (1.Bxd4 e5 2.Qxh5 Kg7 3.Bxc3 Ba6+ 4.Kg1 Qc7 5.Ne6+ fxe6 6.Bxe5+ Qxe5 7.Qxe5+ Kh6 8.Qg5+ Kh7 9.Qh5+ Kg7 10.Rh3 Rf5 11.exf5 Rh8 12.Rg3+ Kf6 13.Qxh8+ Ke7 14.Qe5 Bb5 15.Rg7+ Kf8 16.Qf6+ Ke8 17.Qe7+) +M17/69 809)

White wins _ mate in 17.

Jun-21-25  King.Arthur.Brazil: The king believes that the first move is natural: 15. Bxh5 (since after: gxh5 16. Qxh5, B is in a mate next). 16. Bxd4 Bxd4 17. Ne6 Qe8 18. Qg4 Kh7 19. Nxf8+ Qxf8 20. Qxg6+ Kh8... or f6 16. Bxd4 fxg5 17. Bxc3 gxh5 18. Qxh5... The question is: what will B do to avoid the strong W attack.
