Another puzzle for an easy Reitstein day

White to play and win

Allan Beardsworth (allanbeard) v Pacipapa, 3min blitz, Playchess.com, 21.1.14

Solution

Not too hard, but pleasing nevertheless, especially because it is blitz: 1 Be6+! with the idea of 1…Ke6 2 Qa2+ with ruinous consequences. Particularly pleasing because I chose to look for a move, rather than lazily swapping off rooks and playing f4-f5.
