POSITION AFTER 24 MOVES
STEINER, EN
gm TARTAKOWER
From a tournament in Budapest, 1921. Opposite-side castling provoked a speculative sacrifice of an exchange by Tartakower. Black defended resourcefully up until his last move (24…Bg7; 24…Qd5 was enough to keep the game balanced) and now Tartakower has his opportunity to end the game in his favour!
WHITE TO PLAY AND WIN!
Caution: watch out for White’s weak first rank!
