Jun-14-17 | | stst: Got to break through by R-sac,
22.Re7+ NxR (best)
23.Qxg7+ (the whole point) Ke8 is suicide (QxN#) so Ke6 and is exposed
From here, if Nd4+ then the K can wander for long, so another sac could be made, with QxN+ forcing the K to go K-side and contain it, e.g. KxN, Rd5+ etc... K has to go toward the White pawn line.
Also important not to forget the Black Qxf2 if supported by R@f8, hence forcing the Black K going K-side got this advantage of self-blocking the f-file. |

 | | ChessHigherCat: Would you believe: 22. Re7+ Ne7 23. Qxe7+ 24. Kg8 Qg7#. Good Monday/Tuesday puzzle! Much trickier when black declines the sacrifice with 22..Kg8 23. Rxg7+ Kh8 24. Rxh7+ Kxh7 25. Qh6+ Kg8 26. Qg7# or 25..Kf6/f7 It's too late to calculate it out but I'm sure 26. Qg7+ Kxf5 must either mate or win material. Time to check... FSR is Faster than a Speeding Rotweiler! |

 | | agb2002: White has a pawn for a knight.
Black threatens Bxf5.
White can start a mate attack with 22.Re7+:
A) 22... Nxe7 23.Qxg7+ Ke6 (23... Ke8 24.Qxe7#) 24.Re1+ A.1) 24... Kxf5 25.Re5+ Kf4 Qg5#.
A.2) 24... Kd5 25.Qe5+ Kc4 (25... Kc6 26.Nxe7#) 26.Re4+ Qd4 27.Rxd4#. A.3) 24... Qe3 25.Rxe3+ and mate soon.
B) 22... Kg8 23.Rxg7+ Kh8 24.Rxh7+
B.1) 24... Kxh7 25.Qh6+ Kg8 26.Qg7#.
B.2) 24... Kg8 25.Rg7+ Kh8 26.Qh6#. |

Jun-14-17 | | Cybe: From strong russian engines „thinking”:
20. Q:f7+!, 20… R:f7, 21. R:d7! |
|
Jun-14-17 | | Lambda: Completely missed the 23. Qxg7+ option. I only looked at 23. Qxe7+, which leads to a similar position at Rd5+ except the queen is at g7 rather than e7, where the mating net doesn't quite work, I think. |
|
Jun-14-17 | | saturn2: Black has one piece more but not enough controll of the square e7 therefore 22 Re7+
The black king will be mated on the back rank or in the middle of the board. |

Jun-14-17 | | malt: 22.R:e7+ N:e7 23.Q:g7+ Ke6 24.Q:e7+ K:f5 25.Rd5+ Kg6 (25...Kf4 26.Qe5+ Kg4 27.Qg5# ) 26.Rg5+ Kh6 27.Qg7# |

24.Qg7+ Kxf5 25.Rd5+ Kf4 26.Qg5# C2) 25.-Ke4 26.Qe5# |

|
Jun-14-17 | | JTV: After 21...Kxf7, it's mate in six for white.
22.Re7+ Nxe7 23.Qxg7+ Ke6 24.Qxe7+ Kxf5 25.Rd5+ Kg6 26.Rg5+ Kh6 27.Qg7# |
|
Jun-14-17 | | Carlos0012358: Checkmate in six |
|
Jun-14-17 | | saturn2: Checkmate in five as posted by Walter Glattke. Me too I only looked at 23 Qe7. Is it not more natural to check by taking the knight at the same time? |
|
Jun-14-17 | | Lambda: 22. Re7+ Nxe7 23. Qxe7+ Kg6 24. Qg7+ Kxf5 25. Rd5+ Ke6 and the king escapes. |
|
Jun-14-17 | | saturn2: 25 ..Ke6 26 Re5 |
|
Jun-14-17 | | Lambda: ... 26... Kd6. On 27. Qe7+ Kc6. Don't forget that if you stop checking, black is threatening f2. |
|

 | | kevin86: The rook sac blows the king into the open and a n early grave. |
|
Jun-14-17 | | saturn2: <26... Kd6. On 27. Qe7+ Kc6. Don't forget that if you stop checking> I dont stop checking 28 Qh6 |
|
Jun-14-17 | | devere: Nice combination. 20...Ng6? was a fatal error; 20...Qf6! is playable for Black. |
|
Jun-14-17 | | Longview: I was surprised by the Qg7 move. I was expecting Qxe7. Makes more sense the way it was played. Did not think of using that square which was protected by the Knight. thought the purpose of the R sac was to get the queen to e7 though. |
|
Jun-15-17 | | Moszkowski012273: Re7+,Nxe7,Qxe7+ does NOT work. |
|
Jun-15-17 | | Moszkowski012273: Also white missed the super duper awesome (and slightly stronger) 20.Qxf7+!! |
|
Jun-15-17 | | Lambda: <saturn2> Queen can't move from e7 to h6. If you mean 27. Qh6+ then 27... Kxe5 |
