Position of the Week: Solution
<TOP>

Today's position is from NM Brian Wall's column (Going to the Wall) here at Chessville, and is taken from Game 7 of the recently concluded match between GM Dzindzichashvili and Rybka. Here is the continuation, along with Wall's comments:

36.Nxh5!!!! Beautiful - handing Black the exchange so he can roll with the kingside. A small price to pay for progress. 36...Qh6 37.g4 Be3 38.h3 Bxf2+ 39.Qxf2 There is no defense to the inexorable march of the toy soldiers...

For the rest of the game, see Grandmaster Dzindzichashvili versus Rybka.
