Stronger Tactics!

My tactics post was getting rather large and since I am able to keep my average rating in the high 2200's, these problems should all be a bit tougher (But no less instructive or beautiful).

Strong play here.

This is how it's done.

Amazingly tough and instructive.

Smart stuff.

Nailed It!

Prettiness!

A toughie!

Excellent.

Supersweet!

Boing!

Whew!

Surprised

Playing Chess like a Champ.

Seen it before, but it's worth putting it on here.

Take That!

Winning!

Bring on the Pain!

Neat study!

This might make your opponent quit chess.

Nice Puzzle!

Stared at this for 8 mins, still failed.

Pretty.

Like a boss.

Amazing!

Enjoy!

 

Art!  This is why people play chess.

A nice puzzle.

This problem stumped me. The answer is like art.

I didn't have enough time to get this monster correct.
Getting this one correct on the first try would be a feat.

    Ahh gotcha.  Did you check out the 'Tactics' blog too?  Just because I said they are easier, don't think there aren't some beautiful and instructive problems that are really close to the level of these.  They are certainly worth a look as well.

    Not sure what you mean Zombie.  All the ones on here show up fine.  I will check the "Tactics" blog as well though....but those should be fine as well.

    The blog titled 'Tactics' is full of nice puzzles that are easier, but not much, than these.  Why don't you give those a shot before you try finishing these.  Most of the puzzles here are from the 2300-2400 range of TT.  The 'Tactics' blog is more like 2100-2200.

    hardcore. i solved the first 10 after 30 minutes of intense concentration and gave up when i was only halfway through. good puzzles, classic and beautiful.

    maybe another day i will do the other half.

    Thanks Bruce!  I just find a few along the way that are so beautiful that I feel like I must share.  I have a few from my own games I am going to check out and submit.  See if they make the cut!

    The 8 minute puzzle?? Or the Dark Square bishop puzzle?   The 8 minute one was really tough, great job if it was that one.  If it was the Dark Square bishop one, that one is really instructive right?

    Those were a bit tougher and more instructive than the previous ones right?
