Okay, now I know this position is easy to solve for computers. However for humans would you rate the as:

*Easy

*Moderate

*Hard

*Grandmaster Level

PS: It was hard for me ( At least at the time control the game was played at (G15)), so I guess clearly my tactics need some working on.

Hmm, I'd have to say it must be easy. I'm a pretty lousy player, and that move just jumped out at me. I didn't calculate all the tactics, but seeing the rook with access to the open file...
