{ White has just moved Rd1 in what seems like a reasonable attempt to free his
position and compete for the open file. Furthermore, if black plays Ne5+,
then white wins a piece.|But black see deeper. } 1... Ne5+ 2. Bxe5 Rxd1 3. Bxc7 { White goes up a piece and expects to win the game. } 3... e5 { Black slams the
door shut on white's king. It is black who has the last laugh. } 4. Rd2 Rxd2 5. Bxe5 fxe5 6. a3 Rd4# 0-1
