What is the best move for Black?
Source: ChessToday.net
Black is dead. His King is weak.
Not something I would want to play, but I think Nc4 holds. Example: 1…Nc4 2.Rxa3 Nxd2+ 3.Nxd2 Nf6 4.Bf3 g4 5.Nc4 gxf3 6.Nb6 fxg2+ 7.Kxg2 Ne4 8.Nxa8 b5 Looks like Black untangled himself. Still, I don’t like unbalanced positions.
1. … Nc4.
BTW. Black won.
Maybe knight at c4 ?
1. — Qxa2 is disaster after 2. Qd6+.
Black is uncoordinated and his king is exposed, but he is a piece and a pawn ahead, so
1. — Nc4
2. Rxa3 Nxd2+
3. Nxd2
gives back the piece, stalls white’s attack, leaves black a pawn ahead, and gives him time to get untangled.
But the game is by no means over.
