Sir first if it is white's turn king moves to c6 Then black king moves to a7 Then rook moves to b1,b2, b3 or b4. If it is b1, Then black king moves to a8. Whit king moves to c7 There is only square for the black king and it is a7 Then mate with the rook(Rook a1)

1.Kc6 Ka7 2.Rb6 Ka8 3.Kc7 Ka7 4.Rh6 Ka8 5.Ra6# The answer for the puzzle Explanation: 1. Kc6 To cut off the black king and because of 1.Kc6 black king moves to the corner, This same method is continued till the 3...Ka7. What is the need for 4.Rh6? It's a Waiting for White which made the black king move to the corner. So, the Black king has no way. It has to go to the deadly square a8. As White rook deliver its beautiful checkmate in the a6 Square (5.Ra6#). P.S Chess talk Pls Pin my answer, I hope it will be correct and helpful. Note: I am Just 13 years old

Thank you sir I was not knowing how to check mate with rook and king but now I know thxx to u

[@bahijhamadeh9679]

We play king c6, black is forced to go on A7. So the king is a knight distance then it is the perfect time to play a waiting move. We play rook b1. If black plays king a6 the rook delivers a checkmate by rook to a1. If black plays king a8 then we play king c6 preparing a mate. The king is forced to go back to A7 so we deliver rook a1. By the way love your videos. They help me win games! You are a great coach ❤️

Not all king moves are forced but this method still works

[@parthmodasia3789]

Puzzle solution White plays rook to b1 If black king moves to a5 rook a1 is a simple mate but if black king moves to a7 Whites plays king to c6 If black king moves to a6 rook a1 is a simple mate but if black king moves to a8 Whites plays king to c7 Now black king is forced to come on a7 Rook a1 is a check mate As the 3 squares above the black king is guarded by our white king -----------X----------------------X------------

[@Professor-qv1pi]

Real answer for the puzzle. WHITE - King C6 black - king A7 WHITE - Rook b4 (waiting move) Case 1 Black - king a6 White - checkmate with rook on A file Case 2 Black - king a8 White - king c7 Black - king a7 White - checkmate by rook on a file *I WROTE THIS BECAUSE ALL OTHER ANSWERS WERE WRONG*

[@TheScientificSpot]

Puzzle was very easy 😅: 1. Kc6 Ka7 2. Rb1 , If Black King moves to a8 then Kc7,Ka7,Ra1# If Black King moves to a6 then Ra1# instantly.

[@anupkumarputane8606]

Puzzle solution- White kc6 Black ka7 White (the only rook) Rb3 Black King to a8 or a6 (doesn't matter) White kc7 Black ka7 White ra3 (checkmate)

[@indraneelreddy5228]

Answer Kc6 by white, then black has only Ka7,then white plays Kc7,black plays Ka8,now Ra5 is checkmate.......Thank you very much for the content

[@shuchigupta9863]

Puzzle answer First white king to C6 Then black king goes to A7 naturally Rook to B4 wating move If black comes back to A6 again then rook to A4 would be a ckeckmate. And if Black king goes C8 White king to C7 Black has no other option than C7 And then finally rook to A4 would be a checkmate

[@flavioflavio7304]

The best move for white is rook to b4, black king can't move to a5 because white can play rook to a4 and checkmate so he moves king to a7. White move king to c6. Again black can't move king to a6 and he moves king to a8. White king to c7. King to a7 is the only move and finally rook to a4 checkmate. I love so much your videos. Please can you make more tests? 🥰🥰🥰

[@hangveryt9517]

White king to C6 supporting rook and maintaining distance with the king, Black king forcefully moves to A7 as it is the only legal move, Rook to B1 for waiting move, Black king to A8,as if it comes to A6 it becomes an easy checkmate, King to C7 to maintain the distance, Black king to A7 as it is the only legal move, Then here comes the rook to A1 and it's a checkmate

[@ojupoju9488]

In the puzzle, the black king is a knight's distance away from our king so we play a waiting move keeping our rook on the b file, say we play Rb1,then if black plays Ka5 then rook a1 is mate. So he will go to a7, then we will play Kc6 and again if he comes in the front of our king then it's a mate on Rb1 so he will go to a8, then we will play Kc7, he will have no other option so he will come in front of our king and then Rb1 is a mate..... Hope this is the correct explanation 😅😅

[@manu123mann]

This made my life so easy.

[@krishanusairamkumar4775]

[@CubeforFun]

The answer to the problem at the end: Best case possible : Rook b1, King a5 Rook a1 Checkmate Worst case possible: Rook b1, King a7 King c6, King a8 King c7, King a7 Rook a1 Checkmate

[@yugagrawal6102]

Puzzle solution: Rb1 If Ka5 Ra1 is checkmate If Ka7 Kc6 Ka8 Kc7 Ka7 Ra1 is checkmate

[@MillenniumMeditationsWorship]

Thanks for helping me with my Chess Dreams sir!

[@gg4dat-bs723]

Answer to puzzle: Rb1 If ka5 then Ra1 is a checkmate. If ka7 we follow black king kc6 if ka6 then Ra1 is checkmate. So black king has only one square to move and that is ka8 we follow black king kc7 and king has one square to move that is ka7 then Ra1 is a marvellous checkmate.

[@jonathangutierrez8912]

The solution of puzzle: Since the white king is knight's distance away from black's king we play a waiting move with our rook, Rb1 , i)if ka5 then Ra1 is checkmate . ii)if ka7 ,kc6, ka8 kc7 and after ka7 , Ra1 is checkmate. Your tips are really helpful thanks Jeetendra

[@zeldamh9149]

Rb1, if the black king face our king then its checkmate in 1 move (ra1) if he keeps runing ka7, kc6, ka8, kc7, ka7, ra1 mate.

[@sanjaykannan.k8257]

Pushing the king to corner was already a draw match. Because you made more than 16 moves for black king

[@sultanaakter5415]

This puzzle is as easy as I wondered. May be easy for all as we learned from this video along with the rook and the king to meet up the black king with the checkmate. Strategy is important as we all know in chess and everywhere as well. Now as all we know that @ChessTalk is very good place to learn the strategies, well he deserves a thumbs up with 1 Million Subs.

[@rithwikmanu9893]

Don't go for Kc7 in the second move, opens up space for black king to move back a6 and survive for longer. Play a waiting move with rook instead of Kc7 for the second move.

Wrong answer. You said it easy in your comment but gave wrong answer

[@cloud3135]

Dude there’s a lot more to solve this puzzle and I did solved it it’s much more then 4 - 5 moves also the black king can go to b8 and he can just go back down to attack the rook so look carefully next time

6:50 White wins with 1: Kc6, Ka7 2: Rb6, Ka8, 3: Kc7, Ka7, 4: Rc6, Ka8 5: Ra6# Or 1: Kc6, Ka7, 2: Rb1, Ka8, 3: Kc7, Ka7, 4: Ra1#
