You know the drill. Hit the lightbulb to find blacks move and watch white blunder. Then, PUNISH that blunder.
Let's change the pace. Rather then using the lightbulb, I want you to find the first few important moves for yourself. The blunder will show up eventually, and you'll seize the oppertunity provided

The first one is a line which has to be learned to be useful. 8 moves is too long for a puzzle. But, at least the post contains a puzzle Mate in 3.

In this position, both sides are equal in material and position. Black wants to keep pushing the d pawn to d3 and get its Queen behind it on d4 to defend it. As White, play Kh2 and see Black blunder with Qb6. Then complete the puzzle in 3 moves by taking two pawns to leave White in a strong position with three passed pawns.
