   This puzzle [1]was presented a couple of days ago, based on this
   position:
   [6_2008_swindle_with_refutation.jpg]
   White's down a piece and objectively lost, but lost after 27...Ng5
   28.Bxg5+ Kxg5 29.Rxe6 Kxh4 30.g3+ Kg5 31.Rg6#. The puzzle was to
   determine the last place Black could save (and not only save, but win)
   the game. The solution is [2]here.
