Wednesday Workout

Confidence & clarity

Well well well, the new weekly features are coming fast and furious now, aren’t they?

This is just some old school chess content. A puzzle to get the brain sweating. For best results, try to approach the position as though you have it on the board in a tournament game. The solution is not guaranteed to take any particular form. If you follow me, you know I have a fondness for devilish anti-puzzles. Hmm, I wonder if I’ll have done that this week 🤔

If your focus is OTB play, you may want to set up the position on a board. Hell, set up a clock and and a scoresheet. Make it as realistic as possible. And definitely write down your move. Chess is a game of decision making and it’s important to arrive at a clear decision so you can evaluate it.

It’s Black to play. Good luck!
