amazing draw

this is a position that i saw at central park when i went there this month at an event,i solved it after a few tries,good luck finding the move,btw white to play and draw                                                                              

1.Re6 and white wins. Am I missing something? 1.Re6 Qxe6 Nc5+

I don't get it... what's wrong with 4... Qxf6? (then 5 e8=Q  Qg7#, or 5 e8=N Qh8#)

Are you sure the original position is correct?

Methinks the whole thing has got flipped somehow; White should actually be moving down the board in the position as posted. The correct FEN ought to be 7b/8/kq6/8/8/1N2R3/K2P4/8

It's a study by Leonid Kubbel, by the way.

oh nice, its a Stalemate, The king woudn't be able to move after the queen takes the rook.

Rd3 wins for white.

It's not stalemate... the white pawn can move.

its blocked by the queen after the queen takes rook.

Read the game notes, Re6 (you called it d3) does not win... Qa7 holds.

Ok, so we're guessing that:

1. The puzzle is upside down... white is at the top! (It's a convention that white starts at the bottom, otherwise we won't know where we are).

2. All the moves in the solution are also incorrectly annotated.

This would make sense of the puzzle.

p.s the puzzle "as is" although flawed, is probably still a draw, just not "amazing".

thats exactly what I thought!

Isn't Qa7 illegal?

No, read the solution...the first move is 1 Ne5 therefore the pawn stands on e7, not d2. The problem as it stands is flawed.

I made the mistake,the white king is actually at  h2,and the pawn is at e2,sorry guys and gals!This is the correct position:-)                   

Now THAT'S amazing!

nice:)

It is impressive looking, but Re6 works just as well and is much easier to analyze 

Uh.. Re6 still works in the correct position.

Re6 doesn't work at all. After ...Qxe6 Nc5+ is illegal because the queen pins it.

 Aha, i missed that. In that case, very nice puzzle.
