I think this is solution that arrives at previous puzzle:):

 

Nice try but 1.Nd5 only leads to a draw. Try again.

 

My deear friend let me ask u if u ask yourself what will do white on move 11?

Interesting problem. It's definitely possible to get a safe promotion, but that seems to always lead to a drawn game.

There are a few "special" positions where the side with the pawn and knight has imminent threats, but there always seems to be a flaw (so far Kacparov's #13 post seems like the closest try).

Thats an interesting safe promotion! Using a pin to keep the queen away. The ones I found just restricted her access

The solution actually was quite easy :)

Brilliant, you've done it.

It sure looks simple now, doesn't it? but all of us couldn't do it. All it took to lift the stalemate defence was a small adjustment of the pieces.

 

I'm certainly pleased with this solution.

Wow, that's so simple :P

Kacparov

No, we worked it out on one of the EYCC preparation sessions :)

I have it! look at this! I am surprised that you didn't get this IM It is quite simple

CP6033

OH wait maybe this pawns promotes safely but then what?

Sorry they can make the move Kh7

Sorry I don't look at all the pages of comments. So I was quite off

i know solution its so easy

you said its black move and white wins the game:

i dont know who introduce this puzzle to you but that is not true

black should be foolish to force white do this checkmate.black has 1 queen that can check white king forever or sacrifice his queen to opponent,s pawn

perhaps solution is mate black with 1 knight and 1 king!!!!!!
