Test your chess: Reitstein problem 29

January 22, 2014

Black to play and win

 

FJM Rodrigues v CCA de Villiers

 

Solution

 

 

Straightforward, with the back rank mate threat. 1…Rf5!, and all white can do is decide how to struggle on, for instance with R3d1 or Rg1, when there is nothing immediate for black, but it is 0-1. If 2 Qd1 then 2…Rf1+ 3 Qf1 Qd3! is game over.
