Here is the analysis I have for that position:
[d]4N2k/4PB1p/7P/B1p5/2P5/3q2Pp/1P3P1K/2r5 w - - bm Bc3+;
4N2k/4PB1p/7P/B1p5/2P5/3q2Pp/1P3P1K/2r5 w - - acd 46; acs 5484; bm Bc3+; ce 401; pm Bc3+; pv Bc3+ Rxc3 Nc7 Qe2 e8Q+ Qxe8 Nxe8 Rxc4 Kxh3 Rc2 f4 Rxb2 Kg4 Rf2 Kg5 c4 Bxc4 Rxf4;
Hi Dann,
Actually, the moves Bc3+ Rxc3 are obvious, but then the only winning move indeed seems to be Nc7!!!
How did you find it ?
And is there an original link for that Neghina position ?
His post indicates an engine search to depth 46, taking 5484 seconds. Given that depth, I doubt that the engine has recognized that all other knight moves allow a draw via Qxg3+. In particular, that Ng7 is also inadequate. Interesting position!
