Peter Svidler's analysis of the game in progress in the current World Chess Championship offers an interesting comic possibility. If Gelfand attempts to win Anand's h-pawn, things will go very badly for him.
A possible position:
White to move
1.Qxh5+ would be a blunder.
1...Kg7 2.Qe2 Rd8! 3.Qb2+ f6 and the threat of Rh8+ wins for Black
Scholastic players and parents: Many of the posts on this blog feature lessons developed for youth chess players. The label "Problem of the Week" links to posts that contain my "lesson of the week" from September 2011 through April 2017, and then again occasional posts from 2021 on.
I am available for one-on-one lessons in person or online. Use the contact form below if interested.
