The tactical motive

Discovered attack: one piece steps aside, unleashing another's attack.

Black to move — find the best continuation

Solution & explanation

Main line

43... f4+ 44. Ke2 Bxg6

Why it works

  • Great move! pawn to f4 keeps the pressure (+6.5).
  • Well found: bishop to g6 (+7.2).
  • You win a piece — the bishop.
  • If instead Ke2, then Bxg6 and you win the bishop.
