The below diagram illustrates the hidden potential of tactical combination which shell shocked Sanna and induced resignation in just 3 moves. Here, White's strategy has reached its climax with rook and queen lined up on the open h file and bishop deployed in an active position. Heinicke has ample compensation for the material deficit since Black's forces are huddled in a passive mode without any counter play. Your challenge is to spot the hidden tactics and work out the remaining moves which culminated in a checkmate.
