| get Reti: Surprisingly, I saw all the moves in the solution before even realizing that the queen is en prise. But then my solution was good anyways. |

Sep-20-22 Rellstab vs G Stoltz, 1930
| |
| get Reti: <mayankk06> After 24... Bxf6 25 Bxf6 g6 26 Qg5 black can play 26. Kh7 and hold off mate for the time being, although white is still winning. |

Sep-19-22 M Bezold vs Kharlov, 1992
| |
| get Reti: I actually first saw the longer mate of 27. Rb8+ Kd7 28. Rxd5+ cxd5 29. Qxd5+ Ke7 30. Rb7+ followed by mate in a few moves. But then I knew that Mondays should be easier than that, and saw the move from the game. |

May-11-22 Seirawan vs M Rivas Pastor, 1980
| |
| get Reti: Qc2 didn�t seem that great but was the only move I could find that even had a chance of winning material, so I chose it. |

| get Reti: Who would have thought at the start of this puzzle that the pawn on g5 would be necessary for the solution! |

Mar-29-21 Cochrane vs Staunton, 1842
| |
| get Reti: It took me just as long to figure out whether it was white or black to play as it did for me to find the solution :) |

Dec-02-20 K Shirazi vs O H Castro Rojas, 1991
| |
| get Reti: I also saw this faster than Monday and Tuesday. The fact that it’s a forced mate makes things easier. |
