Curse Of Board 40 Strikes Again

THE following position arose on board 40 in the Bregenz seniors this morning.
White to play and win

1.Bxf3?
This is good enough in the long run, but the game would have ended immediately with 1.Be6#.
Play continued ...
1...Nxh1? 2.Rxh1? Bxf8 3.Nxf8 Rxf8
... and White went on to win.
However, this is not as wacky as yesterday's effort on the same board: CI.
