Subject: WAC 213... is Rxg7 a solution too?

Author: Alessandro Scotti

In this position (WAC 213):

[D]3r1r1k/1b4pp/ppn1p3/4Pp1R/Pn5P/3P4/4QP2/1qB1NKR1 w - -

the best move is Rxh7+, but is Rxg7 playable too?

When I experiment with extensions I can get either this:

Rxg7 Kxg7 Rxh7+ Kxh7 Qh5+ Kg7 Bh6+ Kh8 Bd2+ Kg8

or this:

Rxh7+ Kxh7 Qh5+ Kg8 Rxg7+ Kxg7 Bh6+ Kh7 Bf4+ Kg8

both with a zero score.

  • Ok, so only Rxh7+ is correct... thanks everybody! Alessandro Scotti 15:25:38 11/16/04
