Hi everyone! I'm new in Chess.con university. So instead I made a foroum realted to my pokemon guessing game in pokemon fans but i'll make it a little diffrent. These are the rules: The leader gets to make the chess puzzle and the rest have to guess the correct move. After 1-4 days the leader will post the next move.

1st guess(100% points)

2nd guess(75% points)

3rd guess (50% points)

4th guess (25% points)

At the 5th guess the leader will give the answer and gets to make the question again.

RULES:

1. If you are guessing, you cannot use chess programmes like Fritz, etc.

2. The leader CAN use chess programmes to find out the best move.

3. Do not hack my account to change the points.

4. The leader is the user making the question.

5. Do not make the question until you got the correct move.

6. No copying others' questions.

7. Enjoy!^_^

Well first question! This has 2 moves. You play white. Black 1st move: R_b2.(_ means if it will be blank or not. like if you want to put Bxb5 and you don't want to show people the x)

Can we message you instead of posting it in the comments?

Avatar of IceApprentease

no. If you post it in the notes section, your guess will not be counted.

I'm gonna say Ra8+. Black's king can't run since the 7th rank is blocked by the queen, and the interposition from Black's rook is useless because the King can't help defend it.

Is it h5

Avatar of futuristic_ninja

Negative. Keep in mind, we're trying to force Black's hand in a way that leads them to their demise.

Swedishfish7 is correct! Good job.

This was taken from the 1965 U.S. Championship (Fischer vs. Benko). Fischer was White. After Fischer made Qe8+, Benko resigned.
