I haven't played chess in years... are there no winning combinations starting with:

21. .... Rxg2
22. Kxg2 Qf7

[/ QUOTE ]

i think 21. ... Qf7 is more appropriate, but i still think white has advantage. anyone else have thoughts? (i haven't played chess in ages)

This seems decent to me, but if white manages to block and advance the d6 pawn it could get ugly.

edit: I suck at chess too, but I think white would counter with something along the lines of:

21. ... Qc7
22. Re8! Kh8
23. Rxf8! Rxf8
24. Qd3

22. Kxg2 Qc6

[/ QUOTE ]

No good.

23. Kxg1

No way to keep control, down a rook and in poor defense.

[kerpowski]

21. ... Qc6
22. Rf6+

Quick analysis from Crafty shows the position about dead even. Qf7 is the front runner on your best move.

I'll let it run some and post again.

yeah black is about to get wtfpwned.
no way is crafty calling this dead even.


Rf2-f7 doesnt work. (white follows with Re7 with all sorts of nasty)
Rxg2 is plain ridiculous.
Qc6 doesnt work.
Qf7 doesnt work (qf7.. Re7!)

and i cant think of anythign that doesnt make you lose besides Kh8. but white still has that disgusting passed pawn so your [censored] anyways.

Btw, for people who know how to play, i'd love to get some chess in with 2+2ers. hit me up on aim: DEJ4VU

45 minutes of analysis yields this as the best line:

1 ... Qf7
