Black to move. How should black proceed?
Source: ChessToday.net
1. .. Rbb2 2.Kg2 Rxf2+ 3.Kh3 Ra3 4.Re1 Rf3+ 5.Kg2 Rfxe3 6.Rxe3 Rxe3 7.Rc5 Rf3 8.Re5 Rxf4 9.Kh3 Kc7
yes I can: Rb2
Rb2
1. … Rbb2 (!?)
2. Rxg6 (obvious) Rxf2+
3. Kg1 (again obvious)
and there are no more checks.
Not immediately obvious how black continues here:-)
Something got wrong in my previous comment:
1. … Rbb2
2. Rxg6 Rxf2+
3. Kg1 Rfe2!
4. Kf1! (of course there was the threat Re1#) Rxe3
5. Kf2 Rh3!
Threats Ra2+, and black is going to win!
pht,
Isn’t 5. Kf2 illegal because of the Black rook on a2?
