It’s Your Move: daily chess puzzle
I have now finished my ‘pick of the best’ selection from Teschner and Miles’ “It’s Your Move”. I shall shortly start a new series, from a book that I have now selected, but first one or two random puzzles.
White to play and win

Allan Beardsworth v “Guestopedda” Internet Chess Club, 3-0 blitz, 6th May 2016
