Subject: Another test position

Here is another one from Hossa - Fritz 8:

[D]3r2k1/6pp/4bp2/8/1ppBP1P1/1q3P2/1P1R2KP/4Q3 b - - 0 39

Fritz played 39... Rxd4 and was able to win the game with the b and c pawn.
Nevertheless 39... Rxd4 is only a draw (please correct me if I am wrong) and
therefore it should be avoided or at least evaluated as a draw.

Main line: 39... Rxd4 40. Rxd4 Qxb2+ 41. Rd2 Qb3 42. Rd8+ {here Hossa played 42.
Qh4?} Kf7 43. Qf2

[D]3R4/5kpp/4bp2/8/1pp1P1P1/1q3P2/5QKP/8 b - - 0 43

Whites queen becomes active and black has to give perpetual checks e.g. after
43... g5 44. Qa7+ Kg6 45. Qe7.

Greetings,
Steffen.
