Kubbel, Shajmati 1925
In this position black can relax a bit. His main worry is the dangerous
pawn on h7, but now he's ready to send it to the blissful hunting-grounds.
Then he should be able to play for a win since white's pawns are somewhat
loose?! No, not this time monsigneur! Look above - the name Kubbel spells
brilliant co-operation of the white pieces. True - it's actually white
to move and win. This one is about covering and taking squares. And shows
what a rook and knight can do to a queen...
Test: White to move and win. The time for your program to find the correct
line, gives a clue about the performance in blitz, rapid game and
tournament level. Solution further down.
