This asymmetric position-rook and bishop against a single queen-needs even more foresight than the previous one. Try to visualize the board with only the pawns and kings remaining. Is this a draw or can one side win this fight? What are the main ideas to follow and how does the basic concept of ``keeping the opponent busy'' fit in? Is it, for example, a good idea to play Rxb5 in order to even the material?
