A rook full of tricks
3/3/2010 – Okay, the analysis of last week's endgame set you a pretty hard task. But
since
you are really up to speed on this material, there is an equally hard one
for you
this week. After 72...Rb4+ (diagram) White had an important decision to take in the
game Romanov-Vescovi:
should he move his king aside to g5, in order to advance his h-pawn as
quickly
as possible, or is perhaps 73.Kh3 the better choice?
Work out both variations – but be warned: there are all sorts of
hidden tricks!
