Today's puzzle is a beauty, it's source is very close to home.
White had an extra pawn in this position but the well-placed black knight was a nuisance. In the game White solved this difficulty by 1.Bh3! Qxh3 2.Qxd5 Qe6 3.Qxe6 Rxe6 4.d5 and black soon resigned. Years later White discovered a flaw in this sequence which would have turned the game in Black's favour. Can you spot it?
Solution to the last puzzle:
Ivkov - Duric
Yugoslavia 1983
1.Ng5! 1-0 for if 1...hxg5 2.Rh3. 1...g6 2.Qg6.
