Black's move.
I am in Amsterdam since yesterday. Mario Biondi cancelled his gig (I wish him diarea and farting attacks on all other gigs), but I payed air tickets and hotel (non-reffunfable) so I am here.
On Max Euwe Plein there is a street chess table. I noticed this position on my way back to the hotel.

On Sundays, weather permitting , I use to spend the whole day playing
on such a set in Dortmund in the 70's.
Were the kibitizers arguing for 1...Ne4 to played on first glance
it looks like it may win a piece but after QxQ - Rc1+ the Queen can drop back.
What a coincidence. A large open chess set on place called Max Euwe.
I don't like the pawns they look like wee Bishops.
