More winning 5-sec tactics from Russia!
How are you today? Here, and then again tomorrow, I will follow up on the Russian Higher League championship that just finished a couple of days ago. Lots of great chess! Today I present another six (6) tactics for you to solve. Good luck!

gm Timofeev – gm Khismatullin Russia_HL 4-7-2018
Naturally Black is on top and should win. But the point is to win in style! Black to play and crush!

gm Moiseenko, V – fm Bykov Russia_HL 5.7.2018
Both sides attacking, one with pawns and the other with pieces! Today the pieces win. Black to play and crush!

gm Iskusnyh – gm Moskalenko Russia_HL 3.7.2018
Black just blundered away a nice game with his last move (Re4). White to play and win!


gm Antipov, M – im Gogolev, A Russia_HL 4.7.2018
A messy fight. If White takes the Rook, then Black does the same. White to play and crush!

gm Oparin – gm Kobalia Russia_HL 3.7.2018
Of course White is much better, but it is not so simple to win if White tries to bring his king into the centre. What is White’s killer plan?

wfm Kochukova – Mokshanova Russia_HL 30.6.2018
Typical Sicilian position! Both sides are fully developed. Black is well dug in. But sometimes, that is not enough. White to play and crush!
