No. 53 is an easy 2-mover.
I feature now another "easy" but this time a 3-mover problem.
Again this is an Asorski original chess puzzle.
Goodluck everyone and happy solving!![Smile]( "Smile")
White mates in 3
Is it 1.Ra4
Is it 1.Ra4
1. Ra4 Kd4!
I've been calculating for 30 minutes and I don't think there is a mate in 3. Are you sure this puzzle has a mate in 3??

Yes, there is a mate in 3. I'll post the key in your homepage and check it with your engine.![Laughing]( "Laughing")
man, id rather have real life problems to worry about than these. lolz, jk, hmmm tough one
We all have real-life problems Powerlevel_9001. "Solving easy chess problems will temporarily ease the pain but solving a tough one will add to your burden." I guess this is easy. I'm wrong. I think it's a medium puzzle.
Please keep on solving.![Laughing]( "Laughing")
Is it Rf4 Kxf4 Ra4 followed by Bd2# or Bd6# depending on which rook moves?

This is the diagram with solution:
Thank you all for visiting this post: Adriandmen, Powerlevel_9001 and nate23.
You may post your comment on the puzzle, good or bad it's welcome.
Comp says no mate in 3.
I have found a refutation, but a trophy would be nice anyway for finding the composers idea :)
After 2. Ra4, 2... Rc3! or 2... Rc5!
Asorski. This problem is incorrect:
Comp says no mate in 3.

Adriandmen, BigDoggProblem, and nate23 you are all correct.![Frown]( "Frown")
I should not have post this puzzle in the first place.
I think a White Knight on g4 and put the other Rook on f5 will help.
What do you think??
This is my last puzzle.I guess I need to take a vacation. I need to unwind and to relax to regain my composure.
Again my sincere apology to all.
With the new puzzle, both 1. Rxe3, 1. Rxe5, and 1. Bc3 lead to a mate in 3.
notice how i said jk asorki
Yes, you are all correct. Sorry.![Embarassed]( "Embarassed")
With the new puzzle, both 1. Rxe3, 1. Rxe5, and 1. Bc3 lead to a mate in 3.
So i have to take back the ROok not on f3 but on f1? And put the a-Rook somewhere else like this one? Please check it again, Asorski will not be available in the coming days.
Perhaps putting two pawns( a pawn on d3, and a pawn on d5), would lead to a mate in 3.
