    I'm not a strong player, and I saw the first move immediately. The bad moves are too easy to spot.

    This was very nice and interesring. Sure one thinks of letting the bischis do the work together and thinking of yesterday, I also considered a king move to force queen somewhere and I am so glad for tgis very nice, precise and calm kind of explanation, this is so much fun. 😄

  • @rogerkearns8094
    @rogerkearns8094 9 годин тому

    Certainly, the key move looked very strong, though I didn't see all the variations. I think otb with a long play time control, I would have won this. A nice study, thank you.

  • @nitinshyam8567

    I think you missed if after bishop c6, Qg6, Be4 if Qback to g7 Kb2! the queen has to move.

  • @dave2059
    @dave2059 15 годин тому

    Most of these I find very hard. This one is so easy I don't even need to watch the video. The key is you don't go king to B8, you go to A8, then B8, then C7 (assuming the bishop moves) then move the pawns and game over.

  • @nickmorton9938
    @nickmorton9938 День тому

    Yes, I got the first move fairly quickly. But it takes some time going through all Black’s options - he has quite a few - to see if White has a good response. Overall, a good puzzle, but more interesting for the array of different options than for difficulty.

      @lonewolf42923 22 години тому

      Hi, thanx for reminding me of these, I saw them a long time ago and I am presently compiling funny mates in 1. I have a question tho. As I liked why the first solution doesn't work when you put all pieces up, why isn't it working when they are put down ? I feel like it's a retro-analysis thing, it would be one of the most obvious if you added a white pawn on d3 initially, that's how I would end publishing it I guess... EDIT : omg forget about it I confused myself, no white bishop can land on a1 with a pawn on b2, promoted or not whatever, and the d2 pawn is unrelated to the matter.
