Another Look At Winning Material

Use what you learned from Finding Unprotected Pieces, Picking Correct Captures, and Protect Your Pieces to win material in the following chess puzzles. Always being on the lookout for these types of threats is critical for moving up the chess ranks. You should aim for 100%.

Practice makes perfect. In real games it's also important to expand your thought process by making sure your opponent doesn't have tactical tricks and is merely luring you to capture a piece. In addition it's also important to be able to look at a square you are planning to move to and determining if it's safe or not.
