Black doesn't capture the rook because if it does so, the horse will give a check and at the same time threaten the black rook. So when the black King tries to escape check, the white horse will kill the Black rook.
Needed the full point to go to the next tournament phase..... had a very difficult position. My opponent blundered and after a long fight resigned. Wanna see your comments here!
