I cut my teeth on that book.

Was there not a club/clan on here who were using and discussing
that book in their club/clan forum?

I learned from experience to always show the end and if you can,
explain everything. (Sometimes this it not always possible.)

Try to write/post with an inexperienced player in mind. It will make you
think more and assume less.

Here is the next position - from Hansen-Lundin in 1928




Black to play - what do you do? I'll come back later and post the rest of the game, having trouble with my pgns suddenly and ran out of time...

I think 1. ..Rxd4 is the best move:
2.Nxd4 Nxd4 (2.cxd Bb4) 3.cxd4 Bb4


(4.Qxb4?? Qe2 mate)
