   1. Rg6 with the threat 2. Rxf7+ and 3. Qh6#. 1…Qa1+ 2. Kg2 and the only way to prevent 3. Rxf7+ is for Black to give up the Queen with 2…Qb2.

   This one was a good lesson in how sometimes we need to switch the move order. I kept trying to make my first choice, 1. Rxf7+ work but it doesn’t. So I remembered the idea of changing the move order of a combination and 1. Rg6 gets the job done.

   Yes, switching the move order is a very important method! Very good!
