offense and defense the best move
have you seen this one?
Sort:
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.

Wow, that was nice! (I would definitely have resigned the opening position). Who came up with this?
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.
nice one...
It looked like a lost position to me! That was a thoroughly thought out Rook SAC.

Thanks for the info! That's probably Gipslis you're thinking of...he played Tal a bunch of times (he dreamt this position?!).
yes he did. I think I got this one from chess asia. a very old issue though.
just when you thought white has a losing position, think again.
white to move and win!
