This is first puzzle I began working at, and the last completed puzzle. Took me long time to make it! I've given main line here, you can also try to solve this puzzle for other responses of black. But believe me main line is the hardest! Enjoy!

if you think its bad just say so. Please don't be so silent!

I enjoyed it.

very nice, though it is confusing for black to be down on this end but there is no other way to do it really... very nice

Very nice.

Nice endgame by the white.

very nice puzzle

Nice puzzle K!

Superb and EXCELLENT!!

I liked it but it... But yeah, very confusing for black to be in that position.

I had no choice, but to put black there... This was the only way I could make sacrifice on move 3. Didd anybody try to solve variants with 1... Kd1 and 1...Kf1 ?

 

Though I can turn the board around and black will be in normal position! Only pawns would go backwards

I don't get it. Why didn't the Pawn take the rook and pomote itself into a Queen. ¬¬'

It would be a much easier win in my opinion.

White pawn can't take the rook beacuse it is not legal move.

I didn't know about that rule. Thank you for telling me.

Pawns can't take back, they take only diagonally in front of them.

Making a note that the board is in standard position but the kings have advanced past eachother woulld help. Very nice puzzle though

not too good, easy !

 I think that coordinates on the board show this. That's why they are there!

 You've got t be kidding me! I showed this puzzle to one candidate in master (sorry if translated wrong, hope you understand. It's almost NM) and it took him 5 minutes to solve it! Many other people couldn't solve it too! On real board of course, where they can't just try good-looking move to see if it's right! If you call it easy... Then it's either I'm really bad chessplayer or you're really good! 

 

By the way try to solve variants for 1... Kd1 and 1... Kf1. They're easier, but they don't have given answers to check.

 

And don't forget - it's just my first puzzle! Though I made it in June

no, so why don't you post them? i think you got it wrong. the main line is easy, while the variations are hard.
