Hello Everyone,
There are two kinds of magic moves – One that make you win a game when you’re on the verge of losing and one that gives you a win out of the blue when nothing apparently seems to be happening.
Here is a magic move of the second kind. This game was played in a simul and Black is doing just fine against the 13th World Chess Champion Gary Kasparov.
White can go on playing the game but there is a magic move that promises a sure win. Can you find it?
We will give you the answer tomorrow – for a change – and not immediately! So, take your time to think.
Kasparov-Netzer, Simultaneous display 1998
