I beat Fritz handicapped at 1700, though it seems much weaker. The main point of posting this is the combination at Black's 25th, so it's fine with me if you skip there. I must admit to using the opening book (Fritz tried a novelty at move 6)! ;) I was Black. Here's the game:

Nice rook sac and mate net.  Really solid game.

Fritz at full strength shows that there is mate in six with the following, but it's unlikely I would have seen it playing quickly as I was.

Seeing as we're not computers, we'd probably be wary of potentially hanging pieces in a combination like that, seeing as Qb8 is checkmate. Good finish though!

Rxd2 is check so Black has time to make luft.
