1.Rxg6+!! Rxg6 2.e6! And white wins, since black must give up the rook to stop the white e-pawn from becoming a queen at e8, for example 2...Kh7 (2...a6 3.e7 Kf7 4.e8Q+ Kxe8 5.Kxg6) 3.e7 Rg8 4.Kf6 b6!? 5.Kf7 Rg7+ 6.Ke6 Rg8 7.Kd7 Rg7 8.Kd8 Rg8+ 9.e8Q

About me

I played my first chess game in December 1977 and was lucky to hold draw. I continued to play chess and joined a chess club in September 1978. I'm still enjoying playing chess. I like to do many other things than playing chess. Long walks, some jogging, cycling, reading books, listen to music, watch movies, writing and much more. Life is fun!
