White to play and win
2 GMs were playing blitz online (3 minutes + 0 secs) and the following position appeared, with White to Play.
Of course, Shredder, Fritz or Rybka would be able to help , should you need some advice .
Playing White was GM Sergey Zhigalko, and he found the winning move in 11 seconds. Very impressive !

Ra8 looks good...
You found it! Well done !
1 Ra8 wins indeed . The threat is 2Qf7+.
The only defense is 1..Qc4 ( or 1..Qc1+ 2 Kg2 Qc4) and then 2 c7! makes 1-0.
It took me more than 11 seconds but I did find it. This problem is really fun.
