Thanks Ted for allowing me to post one position

I was itching to try out my new found expertise

Took me a few seconds to realize that the h5 pawn couldn't be taken because the Bishop would then fall. Sometimes I miss the completely obvious.

That is fine, if Kramnik can miss a mate in one, we are all mere mortals...

Topa plays e5, but Rd7 should be sufficient to hold.
