In the last one, why wouldn't black avoid the check by moving to G8? I don't see why he has to use his queen to block.

Avatar of coro

Because than it's m1, if he blocks with queen it's m2

I'm not up to snuff on my chess terminology, what's m1 and m2?

Avatar of coro

Mate in 1 , mate in 2

I managed to get that last one first try! Unfortunately, I can only do three puzzles per day on the site, because I am on a free account. But this is great extra practice!
