Chess's most brutal machine

Torre vs Lasker — Moscow 1925 · Torre Attack (A46)

Lasker

Torre

Moscow, nineteen twenty-five. Carlos Torre, twenty years old, is about to unleash the most brutal combination in chess history — against Emanuel Lasker, world champion for twenty-seven years. Right before it happens, I'll freeze the board and you'll get one chance to find it. Watch the bishop and the rook.

The board stops before the key move — you'll have to find it yourself.
