Hello , ....

This fragment is taken from chess tactic training .

White last move was 1. Rc1-c3 , and now Black to play and win .

The solution given is 1. ... Qe6+ 2. Kg2 Ne1+ 3. Qxe1  Qxe1  Black win .

In my opinion White has better continuation , for example 2. Kh4  Ne1 3. Nh5

The purpose of  3. Nh5 is making g3 square available for the White King . It seems after that , Black can't make significant progress .

Is my assestment correct or not ?  I wait some feedback , so it's become clear

Thanks for responding my question

1. ... Qe6+ 2. Kh4 Ne1(to save the knight and still have it available in the king area) this position must be losing for White because White has no counter-play. Only defense brings only to a loss in chess. With moves like Rf8, g6 Black must be winning even thow I don't see the actual line to a forced win but I know White will end up giving away at least a Knight to avoid mate and end game is won but like I said I see no line how he is going to lose the Knight and there is no need for it ethere :)

It's not because russians is the biggest population in the world, India has more citizens. What's your approachimate fide rating? Officially , I didn't have Elo rating yet . But I often visit chesstempo.com for doing tactic training , my blitz tactic rating is approximately 1890 now . Curiously , in my country (especially in my city where I lived now) , there is very rare chess tournament , ... almost none along the years . May be chess is not favorite sport in my city , so there is no sponsor attracted to held an event , such as : open chess tournament (do you have any recommendation ? ... about sponsorship or others )
