darzzi 28-Nov-12, 21:30 » Report abuse	I agree. I think Rxc7+ is a weak move while Kf1 would defend much more. Or would someone show me how Black can mate after Kf1?
myevilluck 28-Nov-12, 22:50 » Report abuse	My theory would be is that the chosen line has pitfalls. Yes, Kf1 is probably the best move, but the computer is trying to find ways back into the game by choosing lines where there is only one right move. No matter how obvious the right move is. In reality the puzzle should end after Rg8.
