Here is a dramatic game where Black’s attack boomerangs back and White King suddenly becomes an attacking piece! After Black king gets harassed White is making a move with his King thus supporting the Queen threatening mate in 1! Black resigns immediately!
In the end of the video as usual you can solve the daily puzzle!
