  Troitzky, (Schachmaty 1934)

  The title of this one is refeering to a famous movie star.
  Wasn't it Con Air, something with Las Vegas and Face Off?!
  And this person might give a clue to the solution of this
  riddle. It's white to move and win. He has two bishops for
  a knight and pawn + a rook each. Not much material left to
  win considered that both white's preachers are thratened
  at the moment...(1.-Rxd8, 1.-Rh2+).

  Test: Reveal the secrets! White is winning but how?
        Showing +0.87 or +1.63 won't do...
        I like this one but then again, I like Nicholas too...;)
