response. 22...Rxb6? fails to 23.Qxb6 Qa4 24. b3. More
importantly, 22...Ne2 seems like a clever defense, the point
being that Black threatens both ...Qxd1# and ...Rc1+. However,
Nigel missed the brilliant refutation 23.Qf8+!! which wins in
all variations. For example, 23...Kxf8 24.Nxd7+ Kg8 25.Nxf6+
