the engine rybka comes with Kh1 as best solution.
Please help. White checkmate, only 1 solution left....
Sort:
White has the disadvantage no matter what is played.
11 Be3? Nxc2! loses a pawn.
White's best is probably 11 Nc3 Qe6, 12 Kh1 O-O-O, 13 Be3, but the exposed King and doubled pawns aren't good.
Hi Tom,
I first though of 11 Nc3 too, but figured out that black could then go for Nf3. Only possible response for white would be 12. Kh1 , Nxc3, 13. Rf3 Nxf3.
I also looked at Kh1, that would be a better solution indeed. Only gives black a pawn. offcourse black will eventually win, but there's a little chance for white....
Guys, I am a newbie on chess tactics, but I came across a very nice board position in one of my latest games. I just wanted to show you this. I was playing with black, white has to move. In my opinion, white can only win this because of one move(see puzzle).
Does anyone know another solution?
