I am so enjoying Helmut's VH (or Advanced) or 1sudoku.com's Evil on days that this site doesn't have a VH.

Helmut's VH 2018-07-09.
Code:

 +-------+-------+-------+
 | . . 8 | 4 . . | . . . |
 | 5 . . | . . . | 6 . . |
 | . . . | 7 . . | . 4 1 |
 +-------+-------+-------+
 | 7 . . | . 6 1 | . 3 . |
 | . 1 . | . 9 . | . 8 . |
 | . 2 . | 3 7 . | . . 9 |
 +-------+-------+-------+
 | 3 9 . | . . 2 | . . . |
 | . . 4 | . . . | . . 2 |
 | . . . | . . 5 | 3 . . |
 +-------+-------+-------+

Of course I used my favorite method to solve this one with one step (i.e. a forcing chain w/ pincers on both ends! Thanks to Clement and Marty!)

Ciao a Tutti

Nice solutions! Thanks guys! Mine was as follows: (9=8)r8c7-r3c7=(8-3)r2c9=(3-9)r2c6=r2c8=>r8c8<>9. (Tell me if my Eureka notation has any errors!)
