Today’s winning 5-second tactics

gm Szabo Laszlo
Ch Hungary Budapest 1954 Position after 23 moves. Szabo was like a fish in water in middlegame positions arising from the Nimzo Indian. Here White’s attack seems to have come to an end…his Rook on a2 finding it difficult to support White’s ‘war efforts’…
WHITE TO PLAY AND WIN!
Jozsef Pogats was a well known helpmate composer. (1928–2004)

Szabo Laszlo
im Szily, Jozsef
Ch Hungary Budapest 1954 Position after 29 moves. Black is attacking the f2-pawn and it very much seems as though White can not do much about it. Completely hopeless is 30.Bxf7+? KxB!; or if 30.Kh3 Qxf2 and Black is even better! Frustrating isn’t it?
WHITE TO PLAY AND WIN!
