I liked those couple of forced sacrifices... LOL...

stop it at the 5th move..but yep good one

instead of sacrificing the queen, if you play Nc6+ first and then after that queen Qa7 or Qa8 depending of the situation, isn't that better?

good one....wouldnt thought of that

happy halloween to everyone

no one would ever sacrifice that much material

i agree  with cjack

why put queen on a7 n sacrifice i think better move is giving check with knight on Nc6 if they tak it with queen move white queen on qa7 n then qa8 n if they tak knight with pawn move queen again qa7 n then qa8 its fast mate

why not 4...Qxc6?

Yeah, unless they wanted to mate their opponent.

Great play! Though I must say it wouldn't occur to me.

Even if 4...Ka6 the rest still works, the only way out is not to take the 'free' queen... Who here could resist?

I like that one

Excellent puzzle, but rare position.

That won't work, by capturing on c6 with the queen black gives himself an escape square, and white can't continue the attack:

im glad they actually let us play the checkmate, it seems they could have stopped the puzzle at 5ra1+

i sure gonna remember the phylosophy in this example. sacrificing many good pieces, making a double check and leading his king to the open corner. awesome!!

at first i was a bit hesitant about the outcome of such sacrifices, but on a 2nd thot i saw the brilliance in those forced lines.

I dont understand how people can say this is an easy puzzle. Probably they dont even try solving it...

Brilliant combination of checkmate!!!

excellent thinking..
