Wednesday’s 5-second tactics!
SPRAGGETT ON CHESS
gm TRENT
gm KULAOTS
From the Gibraltar Open! It has been a tough game up to now for both sides, but now–probably running short of time–Trent’s sense of danger failed him on the last move (36…Rg3?). This gives White an opportunity to grab the game.
WHITE TO PLAY AND WIN!

gm GALLAGHER
fm PINHO,P
Also from Gibraltar. A typical catfight between two Kings Indian Defence experts, one from the White side and the other from the Black side. White has been slow in developing any initiative on the queenside…while Black has not had any obstacles put in his way on the other side of the board. White’s last move (26.Qc1?) was a serious mistake
BLACK TO PLAY AND WIN!
