(There are other strong moves, but they are much slower than the desired)

Rybka 3 likes f6 but Rybka 3 Dynamic likes Rxh6. It looks to me like if black wants to fight to the end there is little difference in the length of the games since there is no quick mate. I like the surprise of the rook sac.

I agree, both are a clear win :

1. Rxh6 gxh6 2. f6 +-
1. f6 gxf6 2. Bxf6 +-
