Hello everyone, I would like to show you the great tactic to end the day and to start the next day also and to learn from. When you see a good tactic, Think about it 10 times then do it!

I would also show you the tactic! Good luck to everyone who solves the tactic!

In the first one I played Qf1 mate!

I was expecting 3: Qxd3, destroying the tactic. You have to be careful when you sacrifice a lot of material because your opponent might give it back. In this case it's fine and we end up with a queen to a rook but sometimes giving material back leaves you in a horrible position.

Note that in the end up you are up 4 points of material only because you started with an extra 3. That means this tactic only gains one point of material when white gives back his queen, which may not be enough on some tactics training sites depending on the position.

This is unfortunate because unless I am mistaken, you missed an actual winnng tactic on move 26.
