    Today I learned that a knight will always take an uneven amount of moves to move to a square of a different colour but an even amount of moves to reach a square of the same colour regardless of the path you take. It should be really obvious since the knight always switches square colour when moving but I didn't think about it before

    Felt like a genius figuring out the first move AND how checkmate must happen with a horsey AND the first pawn move decides black queen parity. Then thought I was beyond genius fixing the parity by taking c4 pawn first and threatening the c5 pawn to make it move. Then Magnus refused to move the pawn and I realized I am an idiot and just made a draw. Very instructive. :)

    @tiemen9095 4 роки тому +341

    The easy way to realize how to calculate ahead: The knight will always move from light to dark to light squares. The queen, in this case too. We want to move to a light square after the queen moved to a dark square. So we have to promote on, h8 (a dark square) on the turn when the queen is on a light square. We can't take the c4 pawn, as that allows the black queen to stall a turn.

      You can't win at all if you don't capture the c4 pawn. You have to be able to capture black's undefended rook, which would be defended if you leave the c4 pawn. First, you capture the c5 pawn, and then you capture the c4 pawn so black can't spend a waiting move.

  • @EnderSword
    @EnderSword 5 років тому +597

    My first thought on the timing issue was 'Couldn't you just waste a move on the knight until the Queen was in the right spot?'
    But then I realized of course you can't. But it also simplifies things...the Queen moves Dark-Light-Dark-Light because it's stuck as the only move...and all Knights always move Dark-Light-Dark-Light. So you don't actually need to calculate every step, you just need to know you want to promote on the dark square while the Queen is on the light one... so that you'll hit the light one when the queen is on dark.
    Once you do that you could fumble around the board for 30 moves and not screw up the timing, it's locked in.

    Bd5+, Re6
    Bxe6, Qxe6
    fxe6 and so on... in this case White has traded a Queen and a Bishop for a Rook and a Queen and White is left with a Rook and two threats of promoting a pawn to Queen in e6 and g7 while Black is left with a Knight and his pawns are too far from promoting.
    The other possible scenario (but a lot worse for Black) is:
    Qe8+, Nf8
    gxf8=Q++ followed by Qg7#
    This scenario doesn't make sense for Black to play, I'm just posting it as the second option for Black at Qe8+ which starts the whole sequence in both scenarios.

      Jeremy Torres It’s also helpful to remember that white pawns always start in row 2 and black pawns always start in row 7. All these comments criticizing the puzzle for being ambiguous are misguided because the included grid leaves no room for ambiguity. What’s funny is that most chess puzzles with pawns actually rely on the grid to definitively state the direction of movement, but most people pay no attention to this and simply assume that white pawns are moving “up” the board and black pawns are moving “down” the board. Now that the normally assumed direction of movement is less convenient, however, people want to say it’s ambiguous.

    2)white squared bishop to d5. The rook will defend the king by moving to e6.
    3) take the rook with the bishop. The queen will have to take the bishop as it is a checkmate situation.
    4)take the queen with the pawn on f5.
    5)the black knight is helpless so continue moving the pawn forward.
    6)Promote it to either rook or queen its a check.
    7)The knight would have to defend it. Take the knight with either ur queen or ur rook.(depends on ur promotion.) And give a check.
    8)the black king can only move to h7.
    9)Move ur queen or rook to h8 and its a beautiful checkmate.

      This is clickbait, honestly its a really easy puzzle because at the start you are limited to 5 different moves and there is a clear move to take, then you are limited to 2 moves for the pawn, the only pieces you should ever really promote to are queen and knight so again 2 choices, and then its just a matter of finding the string of moves to get into checkmate. The puzzle is very limited and unless you are put on a 1 minute timer or such it should be solvable for someone who plays chess even casually. It lacks much variety.

    Black only has two legal moves, take with the rook or block with the night. If white takes with the rook then you move your next move is Bd5#. If black however blocks with the night you take with the pawn and promote to a queen, from there it's mate in a few moves

    • @dreamsolutions3037
      @dreamsolutions3037 3 роки тому +1

      Bd5 is not mate after rook takes, although it is still winning. Since the rook is on the e file, it can block with re6 ; bishop takes on e6 check, queen takes bishop; pawn takes queen, and then black cant stop White's pawn from advancing in the e file. If the king leaves his square after pawn e7, black will have 2 passed pawns, and if he stays its mate as soon as the e pawn promotes to queen.

      Not quite. I think it would go as follows: QE8-RxE8, BD5-RE6, E6-QxE6, BxE6. Checkmate with the capture of the queen. At this point (after the last move) the King can’t escape from Bishop check so has to try to force his way out. The only way is by taking the pawn on G7 but the King would remain in check because of the Rook on G1.

      @@atanunaskar7099 I don’t think so as if NG5 is played immediately after the pawn to E6. There is a pawn on H4 which would result in H4xG5 but ultimately it relies on Black’s Queen which would still rest on C8 with White’s pawn on E6. Black playing NG5 would delay the inevitable, not prevent the loss.
      Starting several moves into my solution the following could happen: xE6-NF8, E7 check-NE6, E8 (promote to Queen)-QxE8, BxE6-QxE6. At this point it would force White to move his King from H1, or Rook from G1, to prevent him from being checkmated via QH3. Even then all Black has to do is capture White’s Rook and trap him in the 1s using a Rook and Queen combo.

    Bait queen to e8
    Then rook willbe forced to take it
    Then bishop to d5 will be brilliant Checkmate.
    Since no one could attack bishop now. So we diverted rook from attacking bishop by sacrificing queen.
    Also moves available of King were only f7& g8 .
    So we blocked both of them with bishop.
    Also f8& h8 are attacked by pawn of g7 which is defended by rook from g1

    In the main puzzle, i wad amazed when h pawn reaches h8= N, and at that time, black queen must be in a1, if queen is in a2, then whatever the white try to reach for checkmate, all ends in vain. So i learnt a new thing that knight always move to a position in only "even" or "odd" number count. It is really amazing.. i thought any random moves knight can move for mate irrespective of black queen's position. I was wrong and learned a new move structures for KNIGHT. Great👍

      I had thought the same before, but actually that way it'll not be possible. Bcoz if we do the pawn error initially by moving it 2 squares, then once the white knight captures the c4 pawn, black will never actually play the c5 pawn to c4. This way whenever the knight comes to attack the rook, queen will always be available on a2 to protect the rook and checkmate will not be possible.
      In these puzzles, we always consider that both sides play the best move, so black will definitely be aware and not play c5 to c4 to protect the rook. So, the only way to win for white is the way it's shown in the video.
