Hi chess friends and admins! ♟️ We are Superchessprep, a new project sharing Grandmaster-level training to help players break through their ELO plateaus. We hope we aren't bothering anyone—we just want to share some high-quality educational content with you all!
To kick things off, here is a brilliant tactical position from one of GM Pier Luigi Basso's masterclasses. Can you solve it? 👇https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIQ_HHyWqwY&t=329s
♟️ BLACK TO MOVE. White just played 11.h3 — and that little pawn is about to become a massive target.
Opposite-side castling. Both kings are exposed. Whoever attacks first, wins.
Have you ever heard of "the hook"? 🪝
One move here, and Black takes over the initiative completely. Can you find it? 👇
Drop your move in the comments! I'll post the answer in 24 hours.
