Welcome to Puzzle Road! Today’s last day before my OTB tournament of this weekend was successful for me on chess.com in my blitz games! I played a game, had less than 1 minute. My opponent had 2 times more time than me! But he decided to play Queen x b2 (???) and lost with a beautiful checkmate in 3 moves! This is now the position! As topic, I wrote “Elimination of the defense”, because the only piece that protects the castle of the black king is the queen, and it’s some advice for the first move, if Black wants to stop the checkmate, he needs to give the queen! 18/ Checkmate like Tal! (Topic: elimination of the defense) IMPORTANT: I cannot post the puzzles of Saturday and Sunday this week, because I have an OTB tournament. I am sincerely sorry, but we will continue on Monday with the P19 Solution of the puzzle: https://www.chess.com/blog/Kyu13/puzzle-road-checkmate-like-tal-p18

Welcome to puzzle road! I seriously don’t have any idea on how this position came on the board, but while my training for Saturday/Sunday’s tournament OTB, I had this beautiful endgame! Luckily, I had White and not Black. Else, I think I won’t have it called “Beautiful” (!!) On my side, I decided to play a move, which surprised my opponent! (I could see in his face his opinion about how I played) Two possibilities: he did not see the moves and is surprised I could play it. Second possibility: he did think he could win with Black… against me! 17/ A surprise for Black! (Topic: clearance) Solution: https://www.chess.com/blog/Kyu13/puzzle-road-a-surprise-for-black Have a great day!@Kyu13
Welcome to Puzzle Road! Material advantage or no, the chess game is full of surprises and a chess player does need to know how to make them happen. The sacrifices are a very good way to surprise the opponent and if you find a good one, which helps you to win material or to checkmate, don’t hesitate: do it! Calculate the variants, imagine the future position, the advantages your opponent could win and all the possible move (the illogical moves too) to know how to continue the game after having sacrificed! It’s not always the case, that a sacrifice gives you the possibility to win at the next move! 16/ No choice, I need to sacrifice! (Topic: sacrifice) Solution: https://www.chess.com/blog/Kyu13/puzzle-road-no-choice-i-need-to-sacrifice-p16 Thanks for reading! Next puzzle... tomorrow!Have a nice day,@Kyu13
