Very hard problem. We have to find a way to mate after Be7 and Kg7.
1. Bce4 would do this (Be7 Rc8 Kg7 Ng8#), but fails to Bb4.

1. Ng5 is another try: (Be7 2. Nd5 Kg7 3. Qf6) but 2. ... Bf8 is painful.

1. Ne8 is another cool move. (Be7 2. Ng5 Kg7 3. Qf6) but again 2. ... Bf8 defends.

I think the solution is 1. Ne4(!) with these lines:
1. ... Be7 2. Nfg5 Kg7 (Bishop moves are answered with Qf6 or Qf8) 3. Qf6# 
1. ... Bb4 2. Ndc5 Ba5 3. Qd4# or Bxc3 Bxc3# or Bxc5 Rxc5# 
1. ... Bg7 2. Bd5 (this is the reason for Ne4 not Nd5) Kxh7 (Bishop moves allow Rc8# or Bxc3#) 3. Be8#
1. ... Bd6 2. Rc1-5 Be5 3. Rb8# 
1. ... Bh6(c5)  2. Rb8 Bf8 3. Rxf8#

@True_BeginningTease, after 190 posts, you should at least post the winning solution in one place.

Are posts # 75-78 (on page #4) the true solution, or is it posts #81 and #164?  Or will this silly tease just continue?

What a lazy-ass thread you provide.  Are you Trolling, Dear?

And what's up with your game score?  Of your past 50 games, about 80 pecent of them are against opponents rated 500+ points below you.

And you like to beat up little kids, too??  Geesh.  Laughing
