Which Way Would You Prefer to Checkmate?
In the above position white has two rather straight forward checkmates in three moves as well as a checkmate in four moves which starts with a queen sacrifice and is not as straight forward as the two mate in threes.
Would you prefer to administer one of the two straight forward checkmates because they are one move quicker or would you prefer to administer the longer, less straight forward checkmate because it begins with a queen sacrifice?
