Study solved by Carlsen.

Post by Ajedrecista »

Hello!

I was taking a look at 2700chess when I saw this position and the following text:

I hope I have set up the correct position.

I tried some top engines for some minutes and all of them gave losing scores to white side (however, I did not checked the full mainlines).

So the question is: can your engines solve this study?

Sorry for the name of the topic, but I have not found the name and/or date of the composer. Can somebody give this info? Thanks in advance.

Regards from Spain.
