because of the strong links on 8 in the UR 18, r23c49, the 1 in r3c9 is already eliminated.
but ignoring that
the UR provides a xy-wing{46}r23c9, {16}r1c8, {14}r4c8
eliminates the 4 in r5c9 |

While looking to see what could be done with the 18 UR, I noticed that the DP killer was either a 4 or 6 in r23c9. This pseudo cell served as the pivot of a 461 XY-Wing, which was all that was needed. |

Nice find Marty! I used two steps: Code: | *-----------------------------------------------------------*
| 8 16 4 | 9 5 7 | 3 16 2 |
| 1259 1569 1269 | 4 18 3 | 7 1569 168 |
| 7 159 3 | 2 18 6 | 458 1459 148 |
|-------------------+-------------------+-------------------|
| 14 8 5 | 3 6 9 | 2 14 7 |
| 3 149 19 | 5 7 2 | 6 8 14 |
| 6 2 7 | 1 4 8 | 9 3 5 |
|-------------------+-------------------+-------------------|
| 459 3 89 | 6 2 45 | 1 7 489 |
| 19 7 169 | 8 3 45 | 45 2 69 |
| 245 456 268 | 7 9 1 | 458 456 3 |
*-----------------------------------------------------------*
(9)r7c9=(9-6)r8c9=r2c9-(6=1)r1c8-r4c8=r4c1-(1=9)r8c1; r7c13,r8c9<>9
ur 18 r23c59; r3c9=4
