Solution to Problem # 4

This problem is from Korneev-Zelcic, 2005 European Championship, Warsaw, after 31... Rxg2. The game continued 32.Qxe6+ Nd7 33.Qe8+ Kc7 34.Bf4+ Kb6 35.c5+ Ka6 36.Bc4+ Ka5 37.Bd2+ Rxd2 38.Qxg6 1-0.

However, Fritz9 lists 32.c5 as much better, with 32.Rh1 also good. Of course, the move played (32.Qxe6+) seemed to work well also!
