This is just excellent, you are simply brilliant. Thank you very much.
I actually calculated 1.Ra7+ Kb8, 2. Nd6. With the ideas of ...b1Q 3.Rb7+ , and no stalemate here. And 2... K:a7 3. Nb5+. However, 3...Kb6 4. Nc3 Ka5, and black will always be able to harass the Knight, as he has a b-pawn. - Similar positions with pawn vs. Knight , with a c- or d-pawn , would instead be won for White.
Good variation, sacrificing the rook and stoping the pawn, but the King will harass the knight forever.
Good idea, but nalimov say...
This is draw
Great puzzle👍
Cool variation but I'd call it a draw. Black would simply never promote. Black could get his king close enough to chase the knight although he would have to advance carefully to avoid forks. The game would digress to white's knight staying on either c3, a3 or b1 to prevent a safe promotion while black would chase the knight for 50 moves if needed.
Amazing!
I really tried on this one and failed. A forced fork was just not an option I considered.
Good one
Subtle and tricky, as the solution is usually not a check. Nice cooperation of Rook and Knight. Not easy to find the fork on b3 !
Once again, I see the first move without seeing the continuation!😂😊
Same here
Can you be more explicit on who moves first and direction ?!
Each time we have to guess ...
Thank you !
In a regular chess puzzle white ALWAYS moves first unless otherwise stated. For direction of pawns I put arrows in the thumbnail when it might be mixed up, like I actually did in this puzzle. Otherwise it´s also a good tip to check the notation which I always include in my videos.
!Sensacional!
Awesome
Wow!! couldn't see it.
Can you make these puzzles a little easier for some of us less polished players. Maybe give white 3 queens, a couple of rooks, and 5 pawns waiting to promote, and leave black with a pawn on a7.
Ha ha, great comment!
I thought something different. After nb6 and kb8, then:
Nd7..ka8
Rc8..ka7 or kb7
Rb8.. pawn falls next move and no stalemate. At worst you lose the knight which you don't need. Did i miss something or does this puzzle have two solutions?
the problem is: Nb6 Kb8, Nd7+ and black just munches your rook Kxc7
I solved this one.
Thank you.
