There is this lovely line tucked away in there but don't money on how sound it is.
You would lose.

1. Rg4 Nxg4 2. Qh7+ Kf8 3. Ba3+ Ke8 4. Qg8+ Kd7 5. Bf5+ Kc7 6. Qf7+ Kb8 7. Qf8+ Re8 8. Qxe8+ Qxe8 9. Bd6[/pgn] Yeah, that's nasty. I could see myself losing with black like that. 😛

Joined 06 May '08 Moves 42492 A bit of fantasy, it's close, I often float away into the land of never-never.
It's probably how I spot things and gets ideas.
Back to the original. White to play.
Joined 19 Jun '07 Moves 2276 Oddly enough I think it's the combination of what the two previous posters said. Bxd4 then rg4.

[FEN "r5k1/pb4p1/1pq2nQp/8/2Pp1P1R/3Br3/PB4PP/5RK1 w - - 0 1"] 1. Bxd4 Rxd3 { If Black does not take, he is admitting that he lost the d-pawn for nothing. } 2. Rg4 { and black must return the piece because of the attack on g7 from the two different directions. }
