Crux Tactics I - The Evil Rook

Submitted by Crux on Wed, 05/28/2008 at 11:06pm.

This is a tactical sequence I made use of in 12 minute Blitz game on Live Chess. I had made a lot of mistakes in the opening, and I was a solid Bishop down, and my King was in very bad shape. After considering to resign because of the wealth of threats I was facing, I managed to find the following sequence which ended everything for Black.

 

 

 

Hopefully, I'll be able to come up with some more Tactics to add to this blog in the future. Thanks for checking it out =)
