It's a cool puzzle and all, but the real question is how did the black king get there?
@chessscape Жыл бұрын
all the way from h8 along the h file.. this puzzle could definitely happen in real life.. very practical. after the knight chk, the king went to h3

That's weird, when I put it on stockfish, it instantly sees it's winning. Stockfish is very good with forced sequences, so I don't know why it wouldn't find the moves...

@useruseruser402 ай бұрын
make sure your stockfish version is up to date and enable seeing all lines. It is important to do that because it forces stockfish to look deeper into lines instead of discarding their searches if nothing is found yet

My solution(that I got) : 1. Qf1+ g2(this part is with Stockfish's help, although the rest are easy to figure out) 2. Qd3+ g3 3. Qxf5+ Rg4 4. Qh5+ Rhd 5. Qxh4# Also, apparently Stockfish thinks that taking the Queen is a mistake, instead opting for Rb1+ Edit : nvm. Bg3 loses

I worked visually on this line, as well (up to 3.Qxf5). It seems reasonable and I would have played something similar on board. Thanks for mentioning it.

Couldn't White just move the Queen to F1 Checking the KIng. The only Move for Black would be to move the Pawn one square down to G2 blacking the diagonal attack by the Queen. But then the Queen can go to 3 D- Checking the. KIng again. I think eventaully the knight can take at least one of the Pawns,if not more.
@Mahrac1265 ай бұрын
Black's response to checking on the 3rd rank is Bg3+, and then promoting the pawn after white moves the king.

At 3:44 it's a draw you can wait for your time to be over and it will be a draw due to king and knight not being able to checkmate.(though it's forced you can just wait for a draw)
@chessscape Жыл бұрын
it would still not be a draw as long as your opponent can prove there is a possible checkmate
@ResearchAccount-kj9fu Жыл бұрын
It will only be a draw if no side can checkmate, i have a legit question, have you not played that much chess before? Because everyone has been in an endgame with just kings but one side has a queen.

@litestuffllc72495 ай бұрын
OK a very nice solution the double sacrifice; but it assumes that black uses the rook to check and take the queen; he could just move the pawn up take the queen. but why not queen to kb1; check, pawn must move forward to block, queen to q3 check; pawn likely moved forward to block; queen takes pawn check. Rook must block; Queen to KR check Rook must block; queen takes rook checkmate; now there is a problem the bishop could have blocked. In your solution; the Black could have just used the pawn pushed up and the queen is lost.
