RE: Chess problem 64 / Schachaufgabe 64

[jaki01]

First of all: I don't understand your #2: 1. g2+ is an impossible move.

Concerning #1:

1. Ng6 (it's no check, "+", by the way) Nxg6
2. Rxh7 gxf6
3. Rxf7 c5
4. Rhh7

Now you mean that white will win with Rfg7# (not Rfg2)?

What will you play after:

1. Ng6 Nxg6
2. Rxh7 gxf6
3. Rxf7 Nf4?

What will you play after:

1. Ng6 gxh6?

How about:

1.Ng6

a)1...hxg6 2.Rh8#
b)1...fxg6 2.f7+ Kh8 3.Rh7+Kxh7 4.f8R or Q#
c)1...Nxg6 2.Rxh7 gxf6 3.Rxf7
c1) 3....c5 4.Rhh7 and white will mate with Rfg7
c2) 3....Nf4 4.Rg3+ Kh8 5.Rxf6 Kh7 6.Kf7! Nh5 7. Rh3 and mate next move with 8. Rxh7.
d)1....gxh6 2.Ne7+ Kh8 3.Kxf8! c5 4.Rg3 Qg2 5.Rxg2 and mate next move with Rg8.

... and mate next move with 8. Rxh7.

You mean with 8. Rxh5? :)

d)1....gxh6 2.Ne7+ Kh8 3.Kxf8! c5 4.Rg3 Qg2 5.Rxg2 and mate next move with Rg8.

1. ... h5 4. Rg3 h6, and now?

.. and mate next move with 8. Rxh7.

You mean with 8. Rxh5? :)

Yes, I meant 8.Rxh5. Damned clerical errors :-)

d)1....gxh6 2.Ne7+ Kh8 3.Kxf8! c5 4.Rg3 Qg2 5.Rxg2 and mate next move with Rg8.

... h5 4. Rg3 h6, and now?

4.Kxf7 followed by 5.Ng6+, 6.Nf8+ and 7. Rg8 mate.

[jaki01]

You mean 5. Kxf7. :-)

Right, or also 5. Rg8+ Kh7 6. Rg7+ Kh8 7. Kxf7 and then 8. Ng6#. :)

[iceblue]

Yes, 5. Kf7 :-). I had it that way but corrected it ...it is too hot :_)

[jaki01]

That's clearly enough to deserve a little upvote. :)
