From f6 it prevents advance of the white pawn, and simultaneously has enough room for distant checks. } 2.Rh8 { Alternatives would be 2.Kc2 Kf2 3.Re5 e3 4.Kd3 Rd6+ 5. Ke4!? e2 6.Kf4 (also losing is 6.Kf5 Rd5!) 6...Rd4+ 7.Kg5 Rd5! 8.Rxd5 e1=Q, and this endgame is theoretically won with the queen. Or 2.Re5 Rc6+ 3.Kb4 Kd4 followed by ...e3 and Black wins. } (2.Kc2 Kf2 3.Re5 e3 4.Kd3 Rd6+ 5.Ke4!? e2 6.Kf4 (6.Kf5 Rd5!) 6...Rd4+ 7.Kg5 Rd5! 8.Rxd5 e1=Q $19) (2.Re5 Rc6+ 3.Kb4 Kd4 4.-- e3 $19) 2...Rc6+ 3.Kb2 Kf2 4.Rf8+ { If 4.h5 e3 5.h6 and the winning approach is already familiar from the previous example: 5...
