White to Play

Pete Tamburro on

Published in Chess Puzzles

Just a few men on the board, but do take time to think. White can win.


Solution:

A study composed by Isenegger. Just pushing the pawns ends with two queens on the board and a draw, so… 1.Ke2 Kh2 [1...g5 2.Kf3] 2.b4 g5 3.b5 g4 4.b6 g3 5.b7 g2 6.b8Q+ Kh3 7.Qg8 Kh2 8.Kf2
