5/11/2024 – Four precise moves by White out of the diagram position, so that Black has to lay down his arms because of a loss of material - can you manage that?
5/4/2024 – "Check all checks and captures" is a useful tip when accessing sharp positions, however, in the diagram White uncorked a bomb move of a completely different kind. I'm curious to see if you can find it!
4/20/2024 – From the diagram position, White starts a forced sequence at the end of which only the Rh8 remains of the black pieces. Have fun clearing the board!
4/6/2024 – The diagram position is from a game Garry Kasparov and Zoltan Ribli played at the tournament in Skelleftea 1989. Playing 26.Rxb5 White had offered a draw - but after the obligatory 26...Bxe3 he could win by force! Can you find today what the great Garry Kasparov missed back then?
3/30/2024 – With his opening move in the diagram position Black ensures that the white king remains unsafe, and only three moves later there will be sudden checkmate finale. Have fun!
3/16/2024 – In the diagram position Black just offered to exchange bishops with 22...Ba3. Should White go for it or not? I'm looking forward to your continuation!
3/9/2024 – A closed Ruy Lopez, the board full to the brim: you might expect a long game, but after Black played 21...Kf7?? in the diagram position Black was suddenly busted. Have fun - with White!
3/2/2024 – In the diagram position the double attack 38.Qg4! leads to a win for White, since the counterattack 38...Qe3 runs into ... but you can show that yourself in a moment!
2/24/2024 – In the diagram position, the white king will soon bite the queenside dust - somehow no wonder with the Bf5 controlling the b1-square. What would you do with Black?
1/20/2024 – Yes, in the diagram position you may strike with White, but please try to calculate the winning variation as far as possible beforehand. A ten-mover, if you will - have fun!
1/13/2024 – Supported by his giant bishop on b6, Black became active in the diagram position - and was surprisingly quickly rewarded, as the game lasted only three more moves. Are you able to find them all?
