just when you thought white has a losing position, think again.

white to move and win!

offense and defense the best move

I have stared at this for a bit.  I can see that there are a good deal of chances for white from here.

As it is blacks move, how do we respond to Qd8?

I can't see the path from there.

Ng4+ , Kg8 , Nh6#

Nice!

It's not about winning the queen. There's a checkmate with Nh6.

That was an awesome sacrifice! Brilliant followup.

very good

I borrowed this item from a chess mag I read a long time ago. I just rememberred posting it this time.

as far as I can remember, this position is from Giplis' dream (I hope I got the spelling right). it's based on a real game except for the pawn on h7.

this was the real position in the real game.

or was it Gipsilis?

nice one...

It looked like a lost position to me! That was a thoroughly thought out Rook SAC.

ADK

yes he did. I think I got this one from chess asia. a very old issue though.

Nicely dreamt!

Thanks for the posting!
