If you look at the ratings of other posters in this thread, You'll find that most of them are far stronger than you.
I suggest you take a little more time to evaluate the position.
I've been going through my whole "chess problems bag of tricks" toolbox, and I am just missing the punchline. Unless that is the punchline, in which case I am most thoroughly and completely punched. 😵

some of you guys are hilarious, Swiss Gambit was obviously sarcastic, and the point of the thread was to show Chess tutor's uselessness. Or am I the one not detecting the sarcasm in some of the posts?
