Puzzle #47: What is White's Best Move?

Hope everyone has a good New Year!

Trying to vary the puzzles a bit, this one is not a Tinue puzzle, but a test of your board evaluation skills. What should White do in this scenario and why?

Enjoy!

P.S. Even if you do not answer the puzzle, let me know if you like this kind of puzzle or want me to try something different.

P.P.S u/gruppler on r/Tak has just updated/upgraded ptn.ninja. I hope to take advantage of it with next week's puzzle. Go check it out and let him know what you think!

Puzzle #46: Black to Play; Black to Annihilate

Merry Christmas Eve Eve!

My gift to you is a puzzle where you get to absolutely crush your opponent. The goal is not only to secure Tinue, but to leave White with no flats showing when you reach said Tinue.

Enjoy!

Puzzle #45: White to Play; White to Tinue

Evening all!

NohatCoder wanted a puzzle with a single solution, and I think this fits the bill. If you would like to increase the difficulty of the puzzle, try doing it without the interactive frame, treating it more like a game situation where all the future moves and countermoves are done in your mind's eye.

Happy Takking!

P.S. If you have a suggestion, like Nohat did, just drop me a line and I'll see what I can do.
