Puzzle time!GL on solving!
These are some puzzles I watched online. They are instructive but very hard (for me at least ).
It is my BD next week, so I want to treat you to puzzles that require some extra thinking. Hopefully, you will learn something from them!
Enjoy!
Puzzle 1: checkmate in 8 moves.
Puzzle 2: endgame tactic, white to get winning position.
Puzzle 3: hidden winning sequense.
Puzzle 4: an unbelievable Sacrifice (or 2) and checkmate!!
