Only one starting move keeps the winning chances intact...

I never thought about sacrificing the Queen, and it happens on 4 different squares. Beautifull!

[@giovannicorno1247]

Artistic and original, very beatiful!

[@JennievonBargen]

I got it!!! Nice example!!

[@RamKumar-gy9nb]

Excellent as always... You are really good. Thank you very much for sharing this puzzle and making tactical preparation. God bless you

[@BernardWKobes]

A few times you are saying "scam sacrifice" when it should be "sham sacrifice" -- Rudolf Spielmann's term for cases when full material compensation or mate can be easily calculated.

[@Chess-strategy]

Oh, need to think of that in the future. Probably I used the wrong term even if I know it is called sham sacrifice when I think of it.

Excellent puzzle. I didn't see the brilliant queen sacrifice plan. I did get the h2 sac scam once it got that far. These puzzles are sometimes just beyond my level.

[@Muppetias]

Thank you for your enjoyable endgame chess studies. I'm trying to find different openings.(ofc I'll search for them if i have time)

[@douglasmckinley-sr1507]

Chess question. I thought it was illegal to move a piece if it uncovers the King putting it in check. At 2:37 you under promote to a knight putting the black King into checkmate. Yet for the white Knight to capture the Black King it uncovers its own King to the black Queen. Is this an exception to the rule and it is OK to move a piece and expose your King to check so long as the move results n capturing the opponents King?

Deep end game puzzle. Thank you instructive.

I thought it was Qd3. Tough one.

This is very famous. I admire the study composer which composed it, because this is a very, very old chess study.

Getting queen to C8 and then C7 is the way to go. qa3, qa7, qb8, qc8,qc7 and b8q

Why doesn't Qd3 win?

[@gaopinghu7332]

It doesn't achieve anything. Check, but nothing else afterwards.

[@KrailFrost]

@@gaopinghu7332 king has to move to a5 or b6 (if queen blocks we trade), then white qd8(check), if black queen moves promote. if king moves then white qc8. from there you exchange queens or promote depending on black's move.

White queen to D3 wins!

[@dagg310]

how ?

[@michaelwolfe9167]

@@dagg310 Black's king goes a5 or b4. White goes Qd8 check. Wherever black goes with his king, white goes Qc8, and should be up a queen in a turn or 2.
