Beginner Problem - Black To Play


20210724 Problem 1.jpg
6rk/p3p2p/1p2Pp2/2p2P2/2P1nBr1/1P6/P6P/3R1R1K b - - 0 1

It's mate in 2:

1...Rg1+
2.Rxg1 Nf2#


Intermediate Problem - White To Play


20210724 Problem 2.jpg
r3rbk1/ppq2p1p/4pp2/1bP5/1Pp3N1/P2Q4/3N1PPP/3R1RK1 w - - 0 1

1.Nxf6+ Kg7
2.Qxh7+ Kxf6
3.Ne4+ Ke7

If 3...Ke5 then 4.f4#

4.Qh4+ f6
5.Qxf6#


Advanced Problem - White To Play


20210724 Problem 3.jpg
5rk1/p1p2ppp/1bQ5/3N4/2r3q1/P4R2/KPP3P1/7R w - - 0 1

Answer:

1.Qg6 Qxg6

1...fxg6 results in 2.Ne7+ Kh8 3.Rxf8#

1...hxg6 gets you an immediate 2.Ne7#

2.Ne7+ Kh8
3.Nxg6+ Kg8 ( or 3...fxg6 4.Rxf8#)

4.Ne7+ Kh8
5.Rxh7+ Kxh7
6.Rh3+ Rh4

A throwaway check only a machine would find or play.

7.Rxh4#

Hope to see you all next week!

___________

Note: that cryptic line of letters and numbers you see underneath each board diagram is a representation of the position in what is known as "Forsyth-Edwards Notation", or F.E.N. It's actually readable by humans. Most computer applications nowadays can read FEN, so those of you who may want to study the position, you can copy the line of FEN and paste into your chess app and it should automatically recreate the position on its display board. Or, Windows users can just "triple click" on it and the entire line will be highlighted so you can copy and paste it into your chess app.

So that about wraps it up for this week. Chess thread tips, suggestions, bribes, rumors, threats, and insults may be sent to my yahoo address: OregonMuse little-a-in-a-circle yahoo dott com.
