Basic idea is to play Ng5 as white, or Ng4 as black, after the opponent has castled but you have not. Then, when he tries to drive it away with h3/h6, you respond with h5/h4. If he takes the knight, then you retake with your h pawn to hopen the file. If your queen reaches the h-file (your rook is already there) it is possible to set up a deep mate that the program won't see in very fast games... It is difficult to discover such a pathway, because current programs won't fall for it except in very fast time controls... but it is cute.
