The most beautiful move IM Willy Hendriks never got to play - Solution time
http://chessmind.powerblogs.com/posts/1216619440.shtml


   Here's the problem, [1]first mentioned on my blog a few days ago. I
   discovered it on Tim Krabbé's [2]Open Chess Diary (entry 382), but I
   don't want to send you there for the solution just yet, as you might
   find it difficult to see the problem (if you're coming to this anew,
   or still hope to solve it) without seeing the solution in the P.S. So
   here's the position; it's White to move (and not necessarily win, but
   to at least find some way of coping with his many hanging pieces).

   When you're ready for the solution, you can traipse over to Krabbé's
   site, and/or click [3]here.
