first one was great, did you solve it?

Nice puzzles man. If I was in those positions, I highly doubt I would have figured those out, especially the first one. Very nice.

Nice puzzles, David.  I solved the second one rather easily, but the first one was almost study-like.  Great job all around!

nice

nice one! Most people think that the second one is more easy, but I think to check mate has more fun than a draw.

I failed on both...

very nice though!
