Black to move. What is the best continuation for Black?
Source: ChessToday.net
1…Ra1+ 2.Rc1 Rxc1+ 3.Qxc1
Then either:
(a) 3…Qg1+ 4.Kc2 Qxd4
or:
(b) 3…Qxc1+ 4.Kxc1 cxb3
Usually the preferable choice might be (a), but would (b) be an easier way if time is very tight towards the end of a blitz game?
1. …..Ra1
2. Qa1? Qg1 wins the queen, and
2. Rc1 Qg1
3. Kd2 Rc1
4. Qc1 Qd4
5. Kc2 cb3
6. Kb3 Bc6 should win for black.
