Another tactic I missed from a recent game - Fetchbees only to answer as it’s not too tricky to spot: White to play & win in 2 moves |

Can't see a checkmate in 2, but I'd go Re8, Kg7 is forced, then Bc3 to fork the Rook.

Yes JK, spot on:) It should have been easy to spot - look for any checks move 1 then visualise the fork after. It is like a puzzle rush problem, but what puzzle rating Brian? I suspect under 1500... |

Doesn't Bc3 have the same effect? Threatening Re8 mate unless Black moves Rc8 or Kf8. Or have I missed something.
