In this 1995 game against Robert Hübner, New Zealand GM Murray Chandler has just made a fatal mistake.
Hübner, playing white, was quick to capitalize. What sequence did he find?

PPS. Some folks might only know Murray Chandler through his highly successful (and excellent!) chess books for younger players, including How to Beat Your Dad at Chess and Chess Tactics for Kids. But Chandler was a very strong GM, peaking at #14 in the world in 1987.
- Incidentally, 1987 was arguably my best year too…as a human!
- Also, the two books mentioned above are excellent for adult improvers and enjoyers too.
