  [D]6k1/6pp/3n4/1n1p1P2/p1pP1NP1/PpP1K3/1B5P/8 b - - 0 1

  Euwe - Averbakh, Zuerich 1953


  In this position white has just played 36.Nh5-f4, casting eyes on
  the squares d5 and e6. Averbakh, just like a Spanish matador, went
  for the swift kill, and just 4 moves later Euwe resigned. It happened:

  36.-Nxa3! (clears the road for the pawns) 37.Bxa3 Nb5  38.Bc1 Nxc3
  39.Ne2 Nb1! and white resigned 0-1


  It looks like Deep Fritz has some trouble with this position.
  DF wants to protect the pawn on d5 with 36.-Nc7, tried it so far
  as ply20 and 10 min on a PIII 800.


  Test: The mission is clear and the direct winning line above.
