Post-mortems

Always try to get a post-mortem after the game if you are up for it and even sometimes when you are not in the mood for it. Analysing with stronger players, seeing what they were thinking about during the game can be tremendous help. Also just analysing with somebody just as strong or even weaker than you can reveal something from the game you didn't see. Plus you sometimes find fun variations. Chess is such a beautiful game...during one of my post-mortems we found an absolute only move for white to save the game here, can you find it?

    True MikyZ black still has the chances and is the only one that can try to win but it's gonna be difficult to make progress because of perpetual checks.

    Black is threatening mate

    ...Ng2+
    Kh5 g6#

    ...g5+
    Kh5 Rh3+
    Rh4 Rxh4#

    White has a pawn move, h3, so stalemate ideas with Qh8+ don't seem to work.

    White's attempt to pin the g-pawn doesn't work either.
    Qe7 Ng2+
    Kh5 Rh3+
    Rh4 Rxh4+
    Qxh4 Nxh4 and the c-pawn wins for black.

    So the only move i can come up with is Rg4, stopping Ng2+, and any move by the g-pawn.
