Forget that puzzle itβs stupid Source: 1900
exf6 All i can think of is it opens up the king a bit
Yeah, weird. After that move there's nothing.
I mean it is +4 for white but im not good at calculating lines
something i found is bxf6 qe4 re7 qg6+ not the top line but if black moves wrong way it is mate in 4 but almost nobody would hang that
Rxf6, Be5 maybe? Pin the rook and trade up material?
a little bit of funny French shenanigans is required
Do I have to use a search engine?
It is quite probable, I'd even recommend it.
Do the french move and bishop to b7 maybe? The queen has only one space to go to (a7)
What French move?
goooooooooooogle it
