Meanwhile,…

Black is up but Her Majesty is distant and the King is under siege. White has a sniper on the horizon. White’s knight has a great square on F5. White to move.

NB: I’ll hold comments with solutions ’till the next day so there won’t be “spoilers” for others.

In chess news, yesterday at Tata Steel in the Netherlands, Anish Giri soundly defeated Magnus Carlsen for the first time in 12 years, Fabiano Caruana beat Jordan Van Foreest, and young, 17-year-old Indian Praggnanandhaa Rameshbabu (I think the longest name of the competitors) defeated 2nd ranked in the world Ding Liren (one of the shortest names). Round 4 was a wild ride.

Today is a rest day for the players.  Round 5 is tomorrow.
