The March Swiss 90 comes to an end tomorrow and next week (4/4) starts the Cabin Fever Reliever (4SS, G45d10, $10 entry, cash prizes, 2 week event).

This week's position comes from the March Swiss 90 and gives the Game of the Week prize to Scott Williams for creating this mating problem.  Black to move and announce...?
