| Black has a forced win with …Rg6 +, and white is mated in at most 3 moves | ||||||||||
| white can delay the mate by blocking with Bishop and Queen | ||||||||||
| 2 | ||||||||||
| with White to move two possible moves are Qh5 and after …Rg6+ then Qxg6 | ||||||||||
| more likely is f3 …Qxe3+ , Qxe3 …Rxe3 | ||||||||||
| 3 | ||||||||||
| When you see the major pieces line up then start thinking about pins and skewers | ||||||||||
| 4 | ||||||||||
| this lining up can be either how a Rook moves, or how a Bishop moves | ||||||||||
| possibilities are : b3, g4 being the forking moves | ||||||||||
| if g4 then black can save the piece by …Re5+ - King moves and then the Knight runs away too | ||||||||||
| note that if the Knight on h5 is a Bishop then that doesn't work and has to be threatened or prepared with f3 or h3 | ||||||||||
| White also has the chance of skewering the Rook with Bc8+ | ||||||||||
