Bullet Puzzler

I couldn't let this juicy position slip by un-recorded. This comes from a recent bullet game (1 minute, no increment). Black has compensation for being down a pawn, but would like to put his activity to use before white finds any king safety or counterplay. The tactic is short, but very beautiful.

Welcome to my blog! In the USCF I am rated 1921.

 

The content posted here is from my real chess experience, either games I've played or observed. I'll try to put an instructive twist on it. So if you're looking for a glimpse into how a B player thinks about the game, check in and see what I've got. Well, recently my rating has gone over 1800, so perhaps I should list myself as class A instead of class B, but it's not a huge difference.
