Puzzle #10: White to Move
How does white get to Tinue from this board state?
By request, I've left off the number of moves until Tinue. Let me know if this makes the puzzle more enjoyable.
Have fun!

Puzzle #9: If White plays e4, How Does Black Prevent Tinue?
Here's one that is a bit harder than the last. See if you can spot it.
Note: I posted this as a Tinue puzzle for White: Road to Tinue in 1 move. But, after discussion on r/tak, it seems that Black has a way to avoid Tinue. So, I changed the title. If you find a way for White to resume tempo in a meaningful and forceful way, let me know. Otherwise, see if you can find the way out for Black.
Note about the Note: If you are not a member of the Tak subreddit (r/tak) and have wandered onto my blog following some other road, then I highly suggest you join. That is where most of the comments about my puzzles appear, as well as many other good questions and announcements from other Tak players.
