nice puzzle

Evaluating the situation the problems that need resolution are White must keep Black in check and White must have control of g7, that given, the solution becomes apparent. What makes this puzzle really nice is it comes from an actual game. I wonder what the board looked like 5 moves earlier did Tischbierek have it all planned out or did he fall into it?

Nice puzzle

Easier than most of kingdawar's puzzles, but I loved it, especially since it came from a real game.

Sometimes chess players focus on not losing there Queen. The fact that she had to make the sacrafice was special in itself.
