Puzzle – No. 5

White to play is under pressure, as Black is threatening Rh1 + followed by Rc1+ and b1 = Q. If you look closely though, there is a brilliant move which holds the draw. Can you see it?

The solution to Puzzle 4

1 Rg3 + !!

Now whether Black captures with the King or the pawn, it’s stalemate.
