Go up one level in this thread

I think Shredder's output is basically correct in that Rxe6 is *not* the best
move.  After Rxe6 fxe6 is best and leads to the forced line given.  Shredder
sees this better than Fritz does, btw, Fritx abandons fxe6 in favor of Rc7.
Somebody mentioned 1. Rxe6 fxe6 2. Bh6?! as being better than 2. Nxe6 but I
disagree. 1. Rxe6 fxe6 2. Bh6 a6 and white is still in poor shape.  1. Bh6 has a
point to keep the king in the center, but 1. Qd3 to prevent a6 may be as good or
better.  In any case Shredder seems to be doing fine.
