Hello,
In the following bullet game, at move 32, I am glad to have seen a tactics that I find beautiful and that, I believe, does not appear very often in chess:
en.lichess.org/dJph5qaq/white#62So what do you think of this tactics? Beautiful or pretty common? Do you have examples of games with similar double pins? Either in bullet or more serious long time controls.
Pretty impressive that you spotted a combo like that in bullet. I feel like double pins are pretty common, and I may have seen one before, but I can't remember where.
Holy fuck 2800 in training. Are you kidding?
Thank you PatzerGareBear13, that would be great if you could find some and post it there.
PipoParagua, I am kidding! I spent a lot of time on the puzzles to arrive at a high rating by devoting sometimes more than 1 hour to a puzzle and doing only one or two puzzles per day. And then I stopped to keep the rating high! :)
But my real rating with less time spent on them should be around 2200-2400.
If that's the case then spotting a double pin should be easy peasy for you. Good job. I learned tactics with CT-ART, but I never finished all the sections cause I am lazy.
Sure it should be easy with infinite time but in 1 second it is a bigger challenge! And also in a real game you never know in advance if there is actually a winning tactics in a given position.
Is CT-ART a free program?
Not free, but I did not buy it.. You can try it for free on your cellphone. It has less puzzles than the paid version.
