  Bronstein-Olafsson, Portoroz 1958


  Here white coasts to victory by eliminating black's active knight.
  In exchange for the rook he gets a)knight+pawn b)4-2 pawns on the
  queenside  c)a penetrating king  d)a passer. The game went like this:

  1.Rxe5! dxe5 2.Kxe5 Re8+

  (The king's incursion cannot be prevented.)

  3.Kf6 Re3  (a forlorn foray)  4.Kxf7 Rb3 5.Nxg6 Rxb4 6.Ne5+ Kc8
  7.d6 Rb2 8.Ke8! Rd2 9.Ng6 Kb8 10.g3 Rd1 11.Ne7  1-0


  Test: Any horse killing program out there? ;)
