Friday chess puzzle 13: the solution
Somewhat overdue, but here's the solution to our 13th Friday chess puzzle (8 days ago)
It was Boris Spassky about to win against Marszalek, and there were two questions:
1. Which move did Boris, White, play (it forces mate in 5)?
A lot of you spotted the winner 1. Qh6! ... so, congratulations!
2. Does anyone know Mr Marszalek's first name?
Two of you also made a great effort on this one. Winand Simons and Christophe Kriegstumpf (aka. the Haymarket Sage) both suggested Rafal, although after some further research the Sage then suggested it might actually be Josef.
Any further suggestions on this one welcome.
Don't forget to check out yesterday's Friday Chess Puzzle as well.
