The English Descriptive notation equivalent would be "NO mate with Knight at King's Rook one", but that shit does not rhyme!! In the below diagram with WTM Swedish player Zorkne certainly must have thought he possessed the initiative, but notice that the Horse on f8 square guards the checkmate sensitive h7 square along the "permanent post" looking e6 square. So the minor piece located on the back rank protects two crucial weak points.
So Back stands better because White's e1 square is being gang raped by the doubled rooks and White Lady's eventual occupation of the b4 square.
I hope that Brooklyn's Levy Rozman, the Gotham chess content provider, filed a police report regarding the home burglary that wiped out many years of chess wisdom and lessons that help me to briefly become a USCF rated expert. Eric Rosen and Dewa Kipas are also excellent Royal Game tutors who have fair rates and quite COVID compliant with my cousin's kids!!
