7.Nxd3 Qxd3? Bxh2+! wins the queen. Connor was the only one who submitted a correct answer.
8. 1. ...Rxe1 2. Rxe1 Re2!!! Threatens mate on f2 and QxQ. If black plays QxQ then RxR+ (zwishenzug!) followed by gxf6 leaving black with a rook and white with no pieces except pawns. No one figured this one out.. Even I couldn't figure this one out in class.
