A couple of Cartoons then a study by Novomesky & Siran, 2002
White to play and win. Once you get the idea it is quite easy.
But you have to see the idea. The whole thing is a study in
Zugzwang and there are quite a number of them, I make it 8!
Then a puzzle I give new my students. A handy one this for
coaches. It is easy to remember and set up and it hides so much
White to play and mate in four moves.
A phone call.
Then a couple of games, one of them an RHP game with a Romantic Chess theme.
