Good Morning Puzzlers,
This problem is from Mario Lang's puzzle web page at
http://delysid.org:80/chess/epd.cgi
and is reported to be from Fred Reinfield's book "Win At Chess" 1958.
The solution given is:
The best move is: 1. Rg3
Principle:
The white Bishop, white rook, black pawn and black queen all align on a
diagonal.
The black pawn threatens the rook, but when the rook moves to g3,
the bishop pins the pawn and the rook pins the queen.
Black can block the Rook attack on the Queen with his Bishop.
White will win the exchange.
