White to play. This position is from Goganov-Motylev, Russian Championship, Novgorod 2013. Black has just captured on d5 with his bishop, after which White has a killer blow. Can you see it? Answers to me at The Spectator by Tuesday 22 October or via email to victoria@spectator.co.uk. The winner will be the first correct answer out of a hat, and each week I shall be offering a prize of £20.
