The Turning Point   Turning Point #1   Turning Point #2   Turning Point #3  

In every game, there is a turning point. It could be a fork, an x-ray tactic, an exchange sacrifice, or a slight positional advantage. In any case, being able to change the tide of a game is an important skill. In these problems, you will see how to change a relatively even situation into a winning situation. Some of the problems are simple, but others are more complicated. Enjoy!
