Thank you, Igor, for another wonderful lesson. Although the moves won't match in real-life games, but the ideas will definitely help. The solution of the puzzle around 10.20, is queen takes d5 knight (Qxd5), sacrificing the queen to deliver Bb6# checkmate.
@mrnelginАй бұрын
You need something more forcing. Qxd5 is not guaranteed. There's Qc7 or Qc6 where it's protected by 2 pawns. Or after Qxd5 you can move d6 which will give your king some breathing room.

@@McGrrrrrowl Clever, but then Qg2 pins the pawn to the Queen, and Black doesn't seem to have an obvious way to stop Ra1-d1, threatening Rxd6. Bg4 is easily countered by f3, and while this does allow Qc5+, Kh1 evades that and leaves the queen with no attack. But then again, Qxd5 is ALSO beaten by Qc7 and d6, so... maybe this attack isn't as simple as Igor thought?

qxd5 assuming one qc7 - because qxd5 by black queen results in checkmate ; so black queen should go to c7 or c6 guarding against Bb6 checkmate if qc7 -white queen will go g5 & check - f6 only option inturn qxg7 chasing the rook or advantage then capture f6 - if re7 , qf8 if re8 -Bg5 done if qc6 - qd5 xqc6 ; have to d7 x c6; bb6 +, kd7 - Rd1 done

At 1:40, you say Black would like to play 4...d5 to open the center; however, it drops a pawn and so is not really playable. Actually, the move seems fine. If White responds 5. exd5, Black has 5...e4, immediately regaining the pawn. And if White responds 5. Bxd5, Black can play 5...Nxd5 6. exd5 Nxe7 7. c4 c6, and now (a) 8. Nc3 cxd5 9. cxd5 Ng3 should favor Black - he has the two bishops, and White's horribly weak pawn on d5 should fall in due time; (b) 8. dxc6 Nxc6 also should favor Black, thanks to Black's two bishops and superior pawn structure. The 8. dxc6 variation reminds me of the Scandinavian line that goes 1. e4 d5 2. exd5 Nf6, when 3. c4? c6 4. dxc6 Nxc6 is considered good for Black.

@McGrrrrrowlАй бұрын
No, black queen can move down to block. You want to move their queen so take the knight, if queen takes then it is mate with bishop. If not then it is a free knight but queen would have to block mate at c7

I read this as: Qxd5 Qxd5 # If Black's not greedy, then Qxd5 Qc7 . This prevents Bb6#. The material is equal, but Black needs Rb8 before his b pawn can advance and let his Bishop out. Qb6 would be funny. If Black takes, Bb6#, if White takes, Kxc7 , which could keep White busy for a while. Have I missed something?
@dalemcdowell2684Ай бұрын
if Qc7, White could capture the kingside pawns and there's no good response at all for Black.
