Could you provide an example? Maybe you thought it was one, but could've been taken. I remember one where I thought I could pull off the Smothered mate, but instead the move was to capture a piece.
Tactics Training
Sort:
i've noticed this 2 and my only conclusion would be: since its unlikely ur games will turn out with peices in the EXACT places as the trainer,it trains the concept more then just winning that puzzle. i may b wrong,thats just my opinion. hope it helped,srry if it didnt.
Wow! easy fellah! it's only a game (unless you are Fischer, Kasparov etc.), not worth exacerbating any medical conditions or becoming single again. I have noticed a few mistakes (especially "cooked" solutions) but then again, I sort of guess a few as well! I think it all evens out in the end. Happy puzzling!

Cant remember the one it was L.C. , but on the comments , I noticed that others saw the same move , so I am pretty sure that we were right . But on others problems i noticed that in some combinations , Or tratde offs , it wouldnt make any diffrence witch piece you started with , the out come will be the same but I got it wrong because I went about it a diffrent direction. LOL

I see where your comming from . The training was more for the moves than the mate . Thanks for the input

Sence I became a Premium Member I have enjoyed doing these Tactics Puzzles. But has anyone noticed that some of these problems Just dont seem to be correct. Some of the problems vear off to another line of play , when a clear checkmate would be the right move . Why would I not take the checkmate , Just to gain material. I get so angry when I miss one that my wife said that I am going to pop a cork my bloodpressure is so high .
