Position 1: En Passant also stops the queen blocking, which was another reason that simply pushing the pawn couldn't work.
yes
I have the same answer lol
Omg… you are so smart. I didn’t see the queen blocking but then I thought I would just take the queen and checkmate but that’s not one move.
Wow you are right
#1 Puzzle i thought whoch move Black played so i can find it i knew and saw En Passant
Good puzzles. For the fourth one, I could be wrong but bishop takes knight on g4 may be another solution.
I thought so too but f5, took me forever to find it.
I was looking for this in the comments. I wish the video mentioned BxN fails by f5.
yeah pawn f5 prevent checkmate in 1
i found bishop but not the knight
checkmate
The pawn on f7 can go to f5, preventing the checkmate. I was also wrong about this one
For puzzle #3, one can deduce the checkmate in one without the ranks being numbered (and the files being lettered) by the mnemonic "Queen on her color"; meaning that at the beginning of the game, the black queen always starts on the black square. In this setup, the black queen is actually on the white square, which means that the king and queen would be in reversed positions from the initial setup if black were to start on that side of the board. Such a position would be impossible to achieve from the correct setup, which could only mean that black had to have started from the other side of the board.
correct
huh i thought that kings start on their color, the more you know
900 iq
Oh I got a like nice
@@chessscape
For puzzle 1 the other possible solution, if the squares were not numbered, was the black and white positions were reversed with the pawns moving in the opposite directions allowing a mate in 1 by the bishop.
Look’s like I’m a cheater.😢
Same
if you consider yourself being a cheater, because you have vision, imagination and you think outside the box, then i believe you're on the right path for success my friend 😍😍
same
I thought a bit in first,then played the holly move
EN PASSANT
@@chessscape these were hard puzzles,but i found all of them;after watching alphazero and this,my dad will prob get crushed so hard today he will pull the adoption document
4:38 That was soooo funny😂😂😂. I didn't even look the board. I was like what the heck is wrong with you, there is not a checkmate in 1 move. But then I start laughing😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
me too
This puzzle is completly crazy !
When I saw this position I was like "bruh how is that a checkmate!!" Then suddenly I looked at the queen and saw the small 7 written, and then it immediately clicked what was going on 😂
7:41 bishop takes knight on G4 mate
I saw Bxg4 on the fourth puzzle, and at the last second, I saw N(b)d4. And for the longest time I thought both were checkmate and you made a mistake. But I found out I was wrong! Haha!
Missed pawn f4 too
@@marktyree8360 I really thought Bxg4 was the checkmate, but I also missed the pawn on f7
it's actually just Nd4 because the other knight that could go to d4 is pinned!
@@marktyree8360 *Pawn f5
These puzzles do stretched my mind 😅, I almost can't find checkmate in puzzle #3 until you revealed the final and true answer. Impressive puzzles.
I love how the first one is literally impossible cuz he doesn’t say the last move until he reveals it
me too
Sorry bit it was pretty obvious
When he pushes the pawn forward, you see the circle in both the forward, and diagonal square showing that en passant is an available move
@@reddragonknight5200 ok maybe but I in fact am looking at the puzzle not him moving pieces and hard to see blue squares because I am trying to solve the puzzle
I saw the first one as soon as I saw it
“This is the hardest puzzle” me who solved it in one second
6:38 White Bishop to G4 takes the Knight and it's checkmate (maybe)
Pawn can block
yeah saw the same
f5
I saw it too but f5 is just, wow
For puzzle #1, i thought the checkmate in one was d6 discovered check but then i saw the pawn that could go c4 which i think is a good move because if the bishop that checked captures the pawn, the rook will capture and the white rook will capture and rooks can NOT capture diagonally
8:27 The bishop from another universe:
A bishop always snipe my rooooooook
You mean 8:26 ?
I guessed right 4 out of 5, the 3rd one I already knew so it kinda doesn't count. I missed the 4th one, I thought it was Bxg4+, didn't notice that the pawn could block.
I appreciate your content it does open different avenues of thought I have tried for so long to think from the other person's perspective ...But am s focused on winning that i seem blind figuratively in one eye ..And am developing strategic patterns ..Which work but seem to rob the Random beauty of each move changing the entire game....Thank you!!
😊These puzzles are amazing 👏
3rd puzzle was so frustrating haha. I realized the ranks were swapped, but it did not calculate in my mind the way it affected the pawns
these exercises allow you to see deeper in every position. doing more of them increases chances you see a move you wouldn’t have found otherwise 😉
@@chessscapeAlso king and queen are in wrong position is this intentional
Yes, intentional for the sake of the puzzle. Doubt you will see this position often in regular play.@@waicheng1227
Out of curiosity, for that 4th puzzle, is anything stopping Bishop takes G4 from being mate?
Edit. Ah. Pawn block. Yeaaaah those are the little things I miss that have kept me from cracking 1000.
for some reason we miss the f pawn. its weird i know 😅
@@chessscape Nf3 to d4 is also mate
Bruh
When u forgor the f pawn
I forgor it too
at first, for the puzzle #4, i thought there wasn't checkmate
but the corner bishop and King move is check or checkmate
Thank ryad this is very useful (and i solved them all) can you please make more of them.
i m posting another one tomorrow 😉
got the checkmate from castling move but my mind was blown.
guys for the fourth puzzle Bxg4 is not mate, because f5
*founds the mate in 1*
"YOU BECAME THE THING YOU SWORE TO DESTROY‘
Who is he talking to at 0:10?
Thanks man i learn something from this vidio to look much deeper for possible checkmate
Puzzle 1: dxc6+#
Puzzle 2: O-O-O+#
Puzzle 3: Nd3+#
Puzzle 4: Nd4+#
Puzzle 5: Kc5+#
Pitbull is playing chess. Awesome material
7:40 or you could take the G4 knight with the H3 bishop instead.
pawn would be able to jump f7 to f5 blocking the bishop you moved to G4 and that is stopping the checkmate in 1. the knight is the only possibility for cm in one.
I solved all the chess puzzles except the fourth one, I though that Bxg4+ was the correct move, but then I realized that the pawn could block
Me too, but I didn't realize f5 until I read the comments
bro these actually tricked my mind
That was fun, thank you.
the 3rd checkmate was so cool, i didnt even think about that
😉
I saw the solution as soon as I heard to take into consideration the last move played, immediately thought of:
en passant checkmate
The position of the puzzle is actually possible, but you need to be able think outside the box 😊
I figured out by myself that he answer to the 4th puzzle is 1. Nb3-d4#
1. If that guy move his pawn double step at last step, then it's solvable.
2. If king and rook didn't move, then it's solvable.
There was 2 checkmates in 1 in puzzle 4#
some of these puzzles are in the Soviet Chess Primer book, which I'm reading so I could figure them out easily
Got them all. On the third one, a huge hint is that the black king and queen are on the wrong squares to be in the initial position.
This is what i call a real puzzle because its a tricky puzzle that you need to use your brain cells by the way thank you for all the videos i have learned a lot from you like oppositions and many many more😊
you re welcome ❤
In the 3rd position, I figured out by myself that the answer is 1. Nd3#
3:20
If the ranks weren't swapped then this would be a possible position. The black knights can jump out and capture the white pieces, then hop back
i agree 😉
but the king and queen are in the wrong squares
In the 2nd position, I figured out by myself that the answer is 1. O-O-O#
For the 4th chess puzzle first i see there are many pieces in the board i see that bishop takes knight and it also covering the square of f5 and it would be a checkmate i experting that he say bishop takes knight but he say knight d4 checkmate i was really confused there are two checkamtes and he didnt say bishop takes knight
I figured out by myself that the answer to the 5th puzzle is 1. Kc5#
What is the out of the box reason for you to be wearing sun glasses in a dark room?
I love these kind of imagination and eysight using puzzles 🎉
BRILLIANT VIDEO!! 🙂
What is the music in the background though?
cant remember i use so many :)
@@chessscape This is a blunder by you... 😉
Position 3: isn't Bxg4 a checkmate?
In the 1st position, I figured out by myself that the answer is 1. dxc6 e.p.#
1. Dxc6 en passant mate
2. Castles queenside mate
3. Nd3 mate
4. Nbd4 mate
5. Kc5 mate
black was a bit cool in puzzle #3 because he didn't lose pieces and went almost to the eighth rank to promote
first rank not eight
That Castling scenario messed with my head. But then I'd had a few 😎
The first checkmate is capturing the pond
En passant is forced 💀
Great fun. Thx. Great accent too. A bit of Yul Brynner here.
The first puzzle gave me enough enlightment to go on to solve every other puzzle correctly
1st puzzle. A similar position was reached years ago in a tournament. The referee stated the c5 move was illegal... as this is the equivalent for the black king to put itself in check.. there is some argument to be made for this. . The black pawn never indeed reach c5. It was killed before on c6.
You can also do bishop takes knight on g4 for the 4th puzzle
nope … the f pawn 😅
@@chessscapeohh got it
On 4th puzzle bxg4 was also a mate there were 2 mates and second one was kd4 😮
You can also capture the g4 knight on the 4th puzzle and checkmate him in 1 move.
Nope, Black interposes by moving Pawn f7-f5.
Welp the checkmate in 1 is forcing your opponent to resign buy telling them there's checkmate in 1
I think I also got the third one - the pawns are going down the board and we deliver checkmate with the knight!!!
There was two mate for the puzzle that had like 7 queens on the bored the first one was night to D4 but the second one was bishops takes night on g4
Correct bro i was going to reply the same
after Bg4... i push f5 😎
@@user-nk8cv5zo9u and the f pawn? :)
@@chessscape cool
Why can I not checkmate with the bishop?
When you touched the king, i saw that you can castle and realized 😅
The positions are so simple
1. Pawn D6
In position #5 you can checkmate with bishop but you can do the knight as well so there are two ways
Fact check: pawn f5
I guessed the one at 6:14 in like 1 minute or something 😂 (the move is Nd4#)
I appreciated this set. Thank you. (Minor spoilers for #3 in my comments, do not click "read more" until done).
1) Got it. (This was my favourite of them, I think)
2) Got it. Very quickly compared to the first, which I think helped put me in a certain frame of mind.
3) Wait a minute. Sneaky! But I might have gotten it. How odd! No, I didn't get it. I almost did though. I noticed that the Black "Queen" was on the wrong coloured space, so I assumed you'd changed the pieces around to where the Queen was a King and the King was a Queen. That would mean the White "King" was a Queen and could checkmate the black "Queen" on C2. But that's not it. Too outside the box, there, and I never played a lot of virtual chess.
4) Yup, got it. Not too bad this one. I agree it is the easiest thus far, save for maybe 2.
5) Got it. Very relaxed. Found it to be the easiest one.
7:30 doesn't Bxg4 also work in this position?
Nope pawn can block
Pawn to f5 blocks check
Chessescape you can also deliver checkmate in the 4th puzzle by taking with the bishop isn’t it correct
Bishup from h3 to g4
there's a chesskid short just like puzzle #2 and i want to tell my chess club friend
I havent even press video on 1st puzzle and I solved it on thumbnail
3:19 I got to this exact and I mean exact position in 90 moves. Do you know anywhere I can paste the PGN?
Puzzle 1, not even 3 seconds in I screamed EN PASSANT!!!!
on the 3rd one u could have taken with the BISHOP
you can also take with bg4 that,s a mate number 4
the fourth one was really easy actually, but it was pretty confusing at the start
i got the right idea on 4 just missed the pin and got 5
Thanks chesscape i learnt alot just 1 question in the 4th position isnt bishop g4 capturing the knight lead to checkmate? Im around (700)
No, because the pawn can move 2 squares
look at the pawn on f7… can get pushed to f5
For puzzle 2 when you showed that moving the king was not a checkmate it showed that you could castle so I knew the answer
on the 4th one bishop takes G4 checkmate
Puzzle 4: Bg4 was mate
Castle to ladder mate
For the fourth puzzle you can take the knight with your bishop to checkmate
They can block it with the pawn on f7, so not really
@@beat_aidan oh you’re right but at least it’s mate in two
castel mate
in puzzle 3 you can move the white bishop and puzzle 3 i surprisingly saw the bishop
The 3rd and last i saw the solution immediately
By the way in the seceond to last puzzle u could have put took the horse with the white bishop
One the second puzzle I knew instantly 😂
1st position could be even better if the king was on f3
I solve puzzle 5!!
i got all of them right and I'm quite impressed i got the knights one in 3 seconds
1.Pawn takes c6 using en passant.
2.Long Castle
3.Kinda difficult, thanks for hint also it is Nd3# Smothered Mate
4.Nb to d4#
5.Kc5#
Too easy, my son solved this on my device ez. No cheats, here is an actual hard one.
1 Black king on a8
1 black Bishop on b8
2 black pawns on a7 and b7
1 white pawn on b6
1 white rook on a1
1 white king on c8
White to move, mate in 2
i just looked at yhe thumbnail and thought d6 immediately
Puzzle #4 can checkmate with bishop too only knight can check mate???
I think I saw this video before, because I immediately saw the solutions. That usually doesn't happen to me.
The second one made me punch myself 😂
