RE: Chess problem 73 / Schachaufgabe 73
That's the main idea and thus I declare you as winner of this round! :)
What would you play after:
1. Nxe6+ dxe6
2. d7 Bxd7
3. Rxd7 Ne7
4. Rxa5 Rc8 ?
By the way the computer program Stockfish just showed me a really tricky defense in one variation which limits the white advantage (which still exists, however). So in case you are interested just wait for my later solution comment.
Yeah thats what I meant by back rank weaknesses. Rxe7 Qxe7 then Ba3 leads to b4! Bxb4 Qxb4 for blacks and Rc1 would be mate. b4 is possible because queen moved (otherwise the b pawn is pinned), so maybe theres a way to go for Ba3 before?
It's very tactical and in a lightning game i'd still favor whites heavily
Yes, this is a clear advantage for white.
At one point in this whole variation black has a better defence so that in the end he only loses one pawn. Maybe you like trying to find that, but if not, I will show you later. :)
Is it Kg8 at one point? I looked at that briefly but whites can do Qf7+ Kh7 then c4 to open the last rook and threaten Qh3, seems brutal but I dunno how it works in practise
It is a variant that starts after 4. Rxa5.
