PUZZLES in GAMES: "Nice Attack"
Sort:
That is really weird. I was just picturing the possibility of me pulling off this mate, 12-15 moves or so ahead, in one of my e-mail games, when I thought I might peruse the front page. Then this pops up, and needless to say, I solve it instantly, having just pictured it in my head literally seconds earlier.

Well spotted. Not that it changes the result of course...

Yes, it makes it mate in 4, but we are based on the game played. Let's stick to mate in 3.
Ah I like it :)

Yes, but when you say "Mate-in-3," you are claiming that the fastest possible forced mate is in three moves.
OK, Sorry about that! 
Mate-in-4
mate in 3
