All the credit is for you, as you found a direct winning plan I just fill some 'holes'. Congratulations for finding f4!!Steve B wrote: YES!
amazingly the move order is a transposition i think
we can actually delay the Q capture until after Qh7+ Kf8
then Rxb8 Nxb8 and then e5
you have seen even deeper then me i see and i have been playing with this almost all night long

I'm still not 100% convinced. It looks great and I hope it wins, but I guess I tend to be a cautious type of fellow.tano-urayoan wrote:All the credit is for you, as you found a direct winning plan I just fill some 'holes'. Congratulations for finding f4!!Steve B wrote: YES!

Any of the above could win. I think f4 will win with less moves.

Re: CCC Forum vs BigLion chess960
I'll change my vote to 38.f4 too. May as well have a little excitement. Nc7 is the boring route and very longwinded.gerold wrote:I change my move to. f4.Spock wrote:So far

f4 is the forum's move
Not a ponder hit, so BigLion will get back to you
