Some More Tactics

Sorry for the absence everyone (the 2 or 3 of you that read this). I decided to post a few more tactics before I really get back into frequent writing on here. Questions/Comments and Suggestions on what you would like to see on the blog can be sent to JellyBeanMasher@aol.com.


Tactic #1 Difficulty: Moderate, White to Move





Tactic #2 Difficulty: Moderately Easy, White to Move



Solutions:

#1: (Two solutions) 1. Qc8!! Qe7 2. Qxd8!! and white will win very shortly.;

1. Qc6!! (which was played in the game) Qe7 2. Qxd5 and the game concluded ...Nc7 3. Nf7+ black resigned.

#2: 1. Rxf6! black resigned since Nf7 is mate, ...h6 is the best move, but is equally hopeless.
