! A check that threatens both b7 and g4 as well. | |||||

Correct idea. White knows he is on cruise control, and should win. Removing ANY chance of a black pawn push while still safe from receiving a check is just good, solid, patient chess. | |||||

And Ljubojevic resigns, as his g pawn will never reach it's goal because of white's pawn on h2. His a pawn is worthless as well. In a game of queen vs. rook, he may have some play, but now because white's f pawn has entered the picture, he knows he can't defend on that many fronts. A wonderful game, and a beautiful example of the concept of TIME being used in a mating attack. I hope you enjoyed it:) - Thomas | |||||
