OTB

[perseus]

Played over the board tonight.

As white I found a move that won elegantly in a few (about six) moves.

I don't know if it is sound. White to move and win.

Note that Black's Knight is under threat. White had put up a really stubborn defence.

The move I made is further down the page. Is there a defence?















Rook to g3 Rook sacrifice when the Knight is under threat. It took me 15 minutes thinking OTB.

PS: The diagram is from Winboard. I used the PrintScreen Key to capture the image into Photoshop.

I have asked somebody to move 26 for black through Fritz, but I will have to wait for this.

PS: Alas, I found a flaw and it does not win immediately, like it did in the game!

pS: Black's best move must be Ne2. Occurred to me at the time. Thought I was in a stronger position than I actually was. Clear in the morning.
