Test your chess: daily chess puzzle # 69

Black to play and win

 

White plays Rf6 in this position: then what?

 

 

J Wolpert v CH Van der Meyden 1963

 

Solution

 

Fairly easy today, black plays 1…Qd8! winning the exchange. The double attack on the pinned Rf6 and LPDO Bd1 win. For further good measure, if after say 2 Bf3 Bf6 white were to play 3 Qc5??, then 3…Bd4+ is kaput.
