Sunday chess puzzle: Can you spot the magic move?
Chess blog for latest chess news and chess trivia (c) Alexandra Kosteniuk, 2011
Hi everyone,
Time for a chess puzzle. This position arose between Littlewood-Roth, Havana, 1966. What was White's magic move that led to a forced win. You can spot it with a little intuition and a little calculation. Enjoy.

Qxf6 wins also. Although it takes 1 move longer it leaps out at you immediately!
