19... hxg5 20. h6 |
Now, mate is unavoidable. (if the knight on g7 moves, Qxh8#) | ||||
| | |||||
|
20... Rg8 |
Now, it is mate in 5 (puzzle #35234). 20...Rxh6 would last longer 21.Rxh6 Kg8 22.Kd2 followed by Rah1 mates few moves later. | ||||
| | |||||
|
21. hxg7+ Rxg7 |
Forced. | ||||
| | |||||
|
22. Rh8+ Rg8 |
Forced again. | ||||
| | |||||
|
23. Bxg6 |
23.Bxg6! | ||||
| | |||||
|
23... Rc8 |
anyother move, white still plays 24.Bh7 or 24.Bh5 mate next. (of course if 23...Rxh4 24.Qxh8# as the knight is pinned.) | ||||
| | |||||
|
24. Bh7 |
or 24.Bh5, mate next. Black resigns. | ||||
