SPRAGGETT ON CHESS
Today’s puzzle is from a blitz game played in a super-strong blitz-tournament this weekend in Nancy, France. I don’t usually draw upon blitz-games for material for this column, mostly because the general level of tactical play is not creatively rich, but here we find an exception!
gm Dobrov
gm Tkachiev
Position after 21 moves. Black is not very well developed and this gives Tkachiev the opportunity to ”blitz” the Black monarch…
WHITE TO PLAY AND WIN BRILLIANTLY!
