Quick Chess Tactics Test: Can You Solve All?
Sunday is time for Chess King tactics test. Here are three positions from real games. Can you solve them all? In the first position on the left, White to play and win. Mendoza-Diaz, Colombia, 1996. Should White retreat the Bishop from h6 as the mate threat on g7 is thwarted by the Black Queen on f6?
Position 2: White to play and win. Balinov-Cebalo, Graz, 1996. This position has an unusual tactical idea that is normally difficult to spot. Can you find the trick move for a win?
Position 3: White to play and win. Alekhine-Reshevsky, Kemeri, 1937. Black is not only a pawn up but is training forces on the g2 pawn. However, Rd2 by Black was actually a blunder. Do you know how Alekhine goes on to win?
Check back on Tuesday and we will post the answers in the comments section. Have fun solving chess tactics and improve your game with Chess King.
Firat one simple to take pawn on d7 but this next ones totally beyond me
1-Rd6!!
2-n idea yet
3-root takes knight!!
Rxd7 Qxh6
Rxb7 Qd2
black gets b2 and a3 or c3 for the b5 pawn.
Definitely no easy win in sight.
And after Rd6, black can only resign…
2 – rc5 i guess
#2
1. Rc5
If 1….. Qd8 then 2. Re5, de; 3. Qd8+, Kd8; 4. Be5.
If 1….. dc then 2. Be5.
1. Rd6, easy one
2. Rc5 and white always wins a knight
3. Rxb8+ Kxb8 2. Qxe5+ fxe5 3. Rf8+ with mate in two.
1. rook d6, queen d6, queen g7 +-
2. rook c5, dc, bishop e5 +-
3. rook b8, king b8, queen e5, fe, rook f8 +-
