i plan to do some  tactics on a real board... i am using "WINNING CHESS" by Chernev and Reinfeld

http://www.amazon.com/Winning-Chess-Three-Moves-Ahead/dp/0671211145

i also do tactics trainer here but OTB i see tactics not so fast or not at all!

i tried once to start a topic to make puzzles out of this book but it's much work... i can better take pictures when i have set up the board... first a picture where i thought of this

i plan to do 3 a day .. but don't hold me to it :)

first 2 are white to play... the last one black to play

i will make the foto's from the side who has the move.... i don't know if i have to give the solutions of the last 3?? here they are

#1 1.Qh4+, Kg8   2.Qg3+m, Kh8   3. Bc3 ...wins the queen

#2 1.RxR, exR   2. e6, QxQ   3. KtxQ  ... the bishop is lost e6 takes it

#3 1. ..., Bxh2+  2. Kh1, Bc6 ... wins the queen

the next 3

maybe i should say it's all about pins... when chapter changes to knight forks i'll mention it... now solutions of the tactics above

#1 = 1...Bc5 , 2. Rd3. RxB, 3.RxR. Re8

#2 = 1.KtxP. BxKt , 2. RxB. QxB CANNOT (Bd5!) queen retreats 3.RxKt

#3 = 1.KtxB . RxKt , 2.BxKt. RxB . 3.b6 wins the Bishop

the first is BLACK to move ... the second WHITE

i cannot get the pictures in ..very strange... i get yesterdays pictures (above) wich are deleted from my computer ??... i'll try tommorow :((  

still the same problem today...
