SOLUTION for CHESS PROBLEM #1

Gabriel de la Rocha vs Tony Yim

ASCF rated SUPER GROUP GAME

The actual continuation...

10. dxe5

...which still lead to an interesting game.

HOWEVER!

*

10. Nxe7 was the move!

This wins a piece by force!!

*

Here are some lines that show the forced win of material...

10. Nxe7 Nxe7 11. Bxe6 Yes, that is right! The Bishop on e6 is a "hanging piece". Desperado captures only make things worse!

10. Nxe7 Bxb3 11. Nxc6 (Remember that this Knight captured a piece on it's first move!) ...Qd7 12. axb3 Qxc6 leaves White a minor piece ahead. Things are even worse in this line:

10. Nxe7 Bxb3 11. Nxc6 Bxc2?? 12. Qxc2 and now White is two pieces ahead as his Knight on c6 is protected by the Queen!

10. Nxe7 Qxe7 11. d5! A chess FORK for eating either the yummy deliciousness on c6 or on e6 or in the event of 11. ...Bxd5 then we gobble up our opponent's Bishop with the pawn on e4!

ENJOY!
