Post this problem for me me, I do not know how to do it, want to learn for sure!!

White;  Rd1, Rb1, Ph2, Kh3, Pg3, Pa3, Pc4, Bd5, Pe6, Qc6.

Black: Rg8, Qd8, Bc8, Kb8, Pc7, Pb6, Ph5, Pc5, Re2

 

Black to move and force mate, It took me a while to get it, any one that gets it in little time, You are Good!!!!!!!!!

planeden

at the top of the comment box (where the font, bold, etc. is) click on the little chess board.  should be fairly easy to click along and get your puzzle in. 

don't think of this as me being lazy, think of it as teaching you to fish.

Is this it?
if so, copy the fen (click on "fen/pgn" lower left of board) and go to the chess board on the top left of the comment box. Follow the obvious instructions and paste the "fen" into the appropriate box. You should be able to supply a solution and insert the resulting board into a posting. Try it at any rate.

Thank you so very much Batgirl for seting it up, and planeden for the intructions, you are right on, I do want to learn.  This is a problem I had at chess school, although I found the answer, in a real game it would have taken too long. The only credit I can take no one had to give me a hint or show the correct line. Thanks again for your replys!!Wink

Well, Highlight below:

Qh4 looks good, KxQ, Rxh2# But after gxQ Re3 white has Bf3.

So, 1st Bxe6. Then Qh4.

 

Right?

Highlight below: 

Qh4!! gxh4 Re6+ be6 (the principle of 2 weaknesses gets white mated), Bxe6! Qxe6 Rxf6#, very stylish mate, although i have found a mate that rivals this one at this link :P

Thank you both, too, because it also helped me.  

Also, I need help: How can I post more than one quote?

From the diagram I thought Qh4+ gxh4 Re3+ Bf3 Bxe6 Qxe6 Rxf3#

So it's not clear why first take on e6

It's not clear to me why not first Qh4

Is it just flawed?

heinzie

OK it was just forum distraction, the actual solution is correct and flawless

It comes from the game Oslouhov - Mikhail Nedobora 1990 but I find myself unable to retrieve the entire game score from the interwebs :(

xxdanielxx

if you take on e6 first then bishop can block the mate after kxQ

1...qh4 is the winning move

GhostNight

heinzie, you got it right, no other move will work that will force mate.

Ans. 1......Qh4+, 2.gxh4   Re3+,  3.Bf3    Bxe6+, 4.Qxe6   Rxf3 mate

Often times many of us will play  games  and miss the perfect mateing pattern, oh well thats the difference between players, experts, and GMsWink But like that saying "what you do not see you do not miss"? hmmmmmm

Well I tried, all I got was the correct position, which helped alot, but when I went to drag the pieces to play out the answer, the pieces would just pop back into there original position.  How can I possibly be a decent chess player if I cannot figure this outEmbarassed  BatLady where are you?????

kohai

Try this. It may help.

i think you clicked "game" instead of "puzzle" in the first dialog box.  put your position in then hit "enter moves".  that's where you enter the moves and move on. 

edit - oh, kohai beat me.  well, you should listen to her, she is smarter than i am. 

GhostNight

First I want to say,"planeden" your one helpfull person, I will remember your name = good guy!!!!Smile   And thank Kohai, all I can say wow!  I even go to my word pad, this is deep cannot getover how many got it. I will give it a try, see if I can check mate the concept, If not, maybe will give up chess, Embarassed

heinzie

So from which book did you retrieve this position? Was it a position given in a Heinzie Brunthaler book?

Good puzzle ... I solved it from the first diagram with Black at the top without too much trouble, but when it was posted with Black at the bottom it seemed harder! (and I already knew the solution) ... peculiar!
