Mate in 8. Come To Daddy
Sort:
This is actually a Mate in 2...
After Nxf6+, Black cant stop the Mate thread on h7.
Still, nice puzzle
Ah, it's Edward Lasker's famous game in which he forced the Black king all the way to White's back-rank! When I saw the position, I immediately played 1. Qxh7+!! without even thinking. However, Lasker missed a slightly quicker win.
mate in 8 not 2 good puzzle

I do not thin so because it is forced mate.
not a mate in 2, but a mate in 7... white could play 6. Kf1 and 7. Nh2#
tyran, you should have used the line with f4+ instead of h4+. It's faster. Puzzles should always use 'best play'.

Lasker played h4 not Me.

No, 4. f4+ isn't faster than 4. h4+.

I know, but you should still pick the best move over the one Lasker played.

Lasker didn't find the quickest way to checkmate Thomas after playing 4. h4+. Look at the diagram below.

Instead, Lasker played 6. Be2+, which took one move longer to checkmate Black.
