1...Rf3 looks clever.

1...Rxf2 seems like the right move to me. 1...Rf3 seems interesting but not to forceful. So, 1...Rxf2 2. Bxf2(or else black has Rxg2+, leading to mate i think) 2...Qxf2, threating both of whites rooks and mate on g2, which should win the game.

You guys care to refute my line,which I think is a forced mate in all variations,if you think you have a better one?

This appears to have been posted twice, see Thread 75126.

There are numerous ways to win for black. I gave 1 answer in the other thread but RXg2 is good also. The only question is which is the quickest?

I guess Rxf2 works too,yes.But I prefer Rxg2 cause then it's all forced,with checks.After Rxf2 there's silly moves like Rc8+ (what I call computerdefenses) which won't change the outcome in this position but will cause some delay.
I think a forced line is always best cause it leaves no room for nasty surprises 🙂

and Qg8+. If anyone plays these 2 moves an immediate ban is in order as only an engine would play them.

LOL! Yeah,that's also an excellent example of 'computerdefense' 🙂
I didn't even see that one 🙄
