yes :) i logged in to correct my post - but you've seen it aleady ... or have you? your diagram above doesn't show it :

1. Qe6+ KxQ 2.  Rg6 { dis. ch }  # (Rg6 is necessary to prevent 2..e5)

But it makes a nice mate-in-2 puzzle now. (just correct the pgn)

Aw shoot... making these puzzles is harder than I thought! back to the drawing board again, I guess...

The Gambit King

P. S.: I'm not checking these on a computer or anything, as I'm old school and don't have no Fritz or fancy junk like that ROFL... plus I don't have enough time on my hand to hand check these... either that or I'm lazy, so I just let other people cook my puzzles until I can bake them just right...

A game I played and thought I would share. 

Maybe I'll give it a try...

ADK

That's a knight and queen combination to checkmate the Black king.

Try this one. Its from a game I had played quite recently. The level of difficulty is Easy. Mate in 4.

 

 

Yeah I agree with apple,I was wondering why it wouldn't allow me to do that move

it wont let put a game

I am puzzled by the forkman's puzzle.  It should be a one mover.  I don't know why the solution should be that long.

Forkman made the win all the more sweeter with the extra moves.

miyagis puzzle is very EASY so please make them difficult

Easy

This puzzle if from a blitz (10 minute) game. It is White to move and win material.

This is fairly simple, you should see the solution almost immediately.

Someone asked about an editor. I use the excellent free Babas Chess, which also allows you to play online. It has a full range of editing options, including saving positions to the clipbloard in fen/pgn format for pasting into chess.com's own editor. I haven't had a lot of luck with the chess.com editor so I prefer to use that one, and it's free! Just do a search for Babas or go directly to the website:

It is not mate in 4, that requires that your opponent makes exactly the moves you wish him to make. Then it's not a puzzle but a chess dream. What would be the response to 27.Qc8?

I guess people like to make everything complicated. forkman and chessnoob1997, those are the bottom 2 puzzles of the first page, i can see a mate in 1 in both puzzles. On forkmans 1.Nd6# and on chessnoob1997's 1.Rxh5#.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

easy - medium?
