The easiest way to get 2000 live blitz on this site is to be able to take your opponent's hanging pieces, and not hang your own pieces. @myratingis1523
The second to the last puzzle isn't even a good puzzle. I can play Rd8+ and win the rook, which is better than winning a pawn.

The rook on h8 is also a hanging piece because it's completely undefended, and it's much valuable than a pawn. Why would I want to take a pawn when I can get a rook? It makes no sense.
This is for beginners! I'm going to post a bunch of puzzles or diagrams to show a certain tactic everyday!
