September 4 - September 22
Position from the game Zhongyi Tan vs Aleksandra Goryachkina, Semifinals of the World Cup 2023 Women's Section
Solution
Bb4!
If white responds with Rxb4, black can simply promote with a discovered check b1=Q+, and captures the rook on the next move.
If white doesn't take the bishop, black can safely promote the pawn because it is covered by the bishop.
I was thinking along the lines of Bxf4. Would that have the same result?
Is it b2b1?
Rook just takes the piece for free, don't think that's it.
