I don't know, but I know you can get banned for asking tips about ongoing games.

Avatar of myah

This position is also more than winnable!!!

Looks tough. I remember once I was in  a position when I had a King+Rook against a Knight+King. I tried my best to win, but, apparently, it was impossible. Anyway, according to Chessmaster, you CAN win with checkmate

Avatar of donngerard

you can win that if you know how to mate king + queen

King and rook vs. king and knight is usually drawn, isn't it?  I know some positions are winnable if you're the side with the rook, but a lot of those positions will be drawn according to the 50-move rule as well.

King and queen vs. king and knight is pretty much always winning for the side with the queen with very few exceptions.

All you do is force the black King down, with constant checks or threats to Black Knight.

guess what chess titans does

INSTEAD OF MOVING THE KNIGHT LIKE boston12 showed me at move 4..he moves the king....and it makes me fell it a s draw

Avatar of Hahalera

i ca n t get it ..it seems a drawn..it seems to be one of the "exceptions"..as chess titans moves the king and not the horse on move 4

Avatar of JamesBJames

The position after "1. Kd6 Kc3 2. Kd5 Nc2 3. Qc4+ Kd2 4. Ke4" is completely winning. You said the computer makes a king move that baffles you, so let's explore the possibilities real quick.

 

If 4. ..Ke1, white just plays 5. Qxc2 and mates in 3.  Simple enough.

If 4. ..Kc1, white plays 5. Kd3 and attacks the pinned knight, winning it the next turn.  Mate is soon to follow.

If 4. .Kd1, the best move for white is probably 5. Kd3.  A possible line after 5. Kd3 might be 5. ..Ne1+, 6. Kc3 Nc2, 7. Qf1+ Ne1, 8. Qf2! and black is forced to lose the knight.  He'll be mated very soon after.

boston12 -

Nicely done, but at move 9, Qh1# instead of continuing to chase the N.

its not a horse its knight.

Avatar of Dahan

I could, and I'm not even any good. It will take some patience, but you can get to K and Q vs K. A sleeper from there.
