You´re absolutely right, a beauty.  I let fritz6a ´look´ at it and it came with
the following:



1.b6+ Ka8 2.Re1 Nxe1 3.g7 h1Q 4.g8Q+ Bb8 5.a7 Nc6+
  =  (-0.06)   Depth: 15/37   00:01:18  28092kN

The original line of Mitrofanov.


But after a while it followed the line of Kuindzhi, with Kuijf´s refutation, and
Van der Heijden´s refutiation on that.

1.b6+! Ka8 2.Re1 Nc4+ 3.Kb5 Nxb6 4.g7 Ka7 5.Kc6 Be7
  ±  (0.94)   Depth: 16/41   00:04:33  99794kN


The score is slowly dropping overnight, fritzcannot find a win for white.

1.b6+ Ka8 2.Re1 Nc4+ 3.Kb5 Nxb6 4.g7 Ka7 5.Kc6 Be7
  ±  (0.75)   Depth: 21/51   07:17:54  9862904kN, tb=7570



Maybe computers cannot play chess, but in this case they did quite well!

Greetings, Ernst.
