Back to problems Thibault de Vassal (2007-02-17 12:36:56) Mate in 3 By K. Jesperen... Not a retro. Quite hard anyway :) White to move and checkmate in 3 moves ! ChessPosition (see diagram)
Catalin Ionescu (2007-02-22 17:34:44) Answer? :) i think this should be the answer: 1.Re2+ Qf6 2.Bxf6# Thibault de Vassal (2007-02-22 17:36:55) Another try ? :) What do you think about 1. ... Bxg7 ;) Daniel Khayman (2007-02-22 20:23:57) ? I've tried for hours on a board but the best i can do is 4.......: 1.Ra5, Qxg7 2.Rxa5, Qb7+ 3.Kxb7, anything 4.Ra3++, or 1.Qd8, Qxe6 (1..., Qe4 2.Rxe4+, Bxg7 3.Nxg7, anything 4.Qd4++) 2.Re2+, Bxg7 3.Rc2+, dxc2 4.Qd2++. That's my lot. Catalin Ionescu (2007-02-22 20:51:26) Another try :) Here it is: 1.Rc5+ Bxg7 2.Nd4 Qf6 3.Qxc4# Heinz-Georg Lehnhoff (2007-02-22 21:33:44) Another try But Black answers 2. ... Qxc6+ instead of Qf6. Catalin Ionescu (2007-02-22 21:51:50) mate in 5 ok ... so it will be a mate in 5 ;) ps. i'll keep trying Wayne Lowrance (2007-02-23 05:08:49) Mate in 3 Tough problem. After one half hour I can only find mate in four. Gads ! Wayne Lowrance (2007-02-23 05:43:51) Mate in 3 Ahhhhh, gave up to soon. 1)Qh7,Qxh7 2)Nc7,any move followed by 3)Nb5#....or 1)Qh7, Bxg7 2)Qh2, any move followed by Qxe5# Daniel Khayman (2007-02-23 07:04:50) :-))) i knew you'd find it, wayne. i tried everything exept Qh7!! nice one, my friend:-)) Volker Koslowski (2007-02-23 10:08:02) Mate in 3 Good work Wayne :) Her is another solution with 1.Qh7 After 1.Qh7 Qxg7 2.Nc7 does not work anymore but now you have 2.Qxd3+ Kxd3 and finally 3. Re3# I spended 1 hour or more but only found mate in 4 :) Thibault de Vassal (2007-02-23 11:44:07) Right ! Well done, Wayne :) Nice problem... Really hard. Catalin Ionescu (2007-02-23 13:51:06) bravo :) Good job, Wayne! Tricky solution :)
