Here are six puzzles from the Sicilian, Richter-Rauzer Attack. All puzzles are taken from positions in the first 24 moves of the game. As a refresher, here's the first 7 moves: 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 Nc6 6.Bg5 e6 7.Qd2 a6
The first three puzzles are White to move and win (the first is a 'Mate in 10') and the last three are Black to move and win.
