Hi, indeed I got the idea from one of my games.

1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 d6 4. d4 Bd7 5. d5 Nb8 6. Bxd7+ Qxd7 7. O-O Nf6 8. Re1 Be7 9. c4 h6 10. Nc3 O-O 11. b4 Nh7 12. a4 f5 13. h3 f4 14. Nh2 Bg5 15. Qg4 Qe7 16. Ba3 Nd7 17. a5 Nhf6 18. Qe6+ Rf7 19. Qxe7 Rxe7 20. Nb5 Ne8 21. Nf3 Bf6 22. g4 a6 23. Nc3 g5 24. Kg2 Kh7 25. h4 Kg6 26. Rh1 Ng7 27. hxg5 hxg5 28. Rh3 Rg8 29. b5 Ne8 30. Rah1 Ng7 31. b6

At this stage I was thinking what happens if 31. ... cxb6 32. Bxd6 Re8 33. axb6 Nxb6 which is the position on the board and white forces mate in 4.

The game went into another direction with 31. ... Nf8 32. bxc7 and it's blacks turn, but I'm pretty confident that this is looking good for white
