Black to play. This is from Wojtszek-Jobava, Wijk aan Zee 2014. This week’s puzzle is a fine finish from the ‘B’ group at Wijk aan Zee. The white position is a mess, but what is the key winning move for Black? Answers to me at The Spectator by Tuesday 28 January or via email to victoria@spectator.co.uk or by fax on 020 7681 3773. The winner will be the first correct answer out of a hat, and each week I shall be offering a prize of £20. Please include a postal address and allow six weeks for prize delivery.
 
Last week’s solution 1 Rxe7+
Last week’s winner Jeremy Putley, Harrogate
