 thats what i get, its mate in 1. Nd6

think the same

and chessnoob1997: isn´t the solution Kxh5#?

It also seems that 1.Rxh5# is checkmate for chessnoob1997's puzzle.

check this out...mate in 7...really nice!!!!

It looks like a lot of the positions being given are flawed.  One that nobody picked up on yet is xalways.  Ie. 1. Rd3 exd3 2. Qc8 de 3. Qb7 #.  Incidentally, I thought the idea of this post was to encourage daily puzzle submissions, not put them in here unchecked.  There is another forum for our own problems.  But dont be put off, this is a good way to learn.

exactly, forkman's puzzle is a mate in one puzzle... Nd6# !

the puzzle of sotyguirist is a cool yet well-known pattern of checkmate...

Similarly, chessnoob1997, rook x h5 is mate first move.

same with apple127

On puzzle # 19 above, all that's needed is a single Rh5#.

Forkman, you are way off... It's Nd6 mate.  one move.

 If Kxa2 then Ra7#

fokman and noob1997 forkman u can move knight d6 for mate and noob1997 u can do rook h5 for mate
