A PROBLEM FROM MY PAST - Now I know where John got it from!

WHITE TO PLAY AND DRAW!!!!

Ok... so a long long time ago a fellow chess enthusist showed me this problem and neglected to tell me where they had come across it. Well now I know! One of my two favorite websites - www.chessbase.com - is having a puzzle contest to celebrate the Holidays. And guess what turned up there!!!!!!!!!!! Aha!!!!!!!!!!!!

Having forgotten about this gem for a long time - it has been something like 14 years now - it is nice to run across this old friend and to be able to now share it with you! Enjoy - Coach Sean.

  2. 1.Ba4 starts the "zipper" with pawn checks to follow thus closing the door to White's side of the tent!
