White to move and win
[need a hint?]
[Solution]
[archive]
1.Re8 Qxe8
Note that 1...Rxe8 loses via checkmate: 2.Qxd5+ Qxd5
3.Bxd5+ Re6 4.Bxe6 mate.
2.Bxd5+ Rxd5 3.Qxd5+
Double attack: the queen gives check, which Black
must attend to; meanwhile the lonely, and unprotected,
knight is hanging too. Black can't save both the knight & his
king!
3...Qf7 4.Qxa5
White is a knight ahead, and once he gets his pieces
developed, that should be enough to secure the victory.
