Nice chess illusion for Sunday!
Chess blog for latest chess news and chess trivia (c) Alexandra Kosteniuk, 2011
Hello everyone,
How about a neat chess illusion this Sunday. Can you figure out how White can save this game? Nearly impossible! Just tell us the key move.
Don't forget, not only is White losing their Queen but taking the White Queen to safety means Black would checkmate with Bishop takes Ne5.
White to play and win!
