Me. Also, I assumed switching to the Queen (when I got the directions and chess board position correct) was the right move. A very unrealistic predicament, though, I have to say. And truly not a lot to learn, at least for experienced enough players who are already familiar with basic concepts of being trapped and switching pawns for other pieces. This is almost novice-level stuff.

Today I learned that a knight will always take an uneven amount of moves to move to a square of a different colour but an even amount of moves to reach a square of the same colour regardless of the path you take. It should be really obvious since the knight always switches square colour when moving but I didn't think about it before

Felt like a genius figuring out the first move AND how checkmate must happen with a horsey AND the first pawn move decides black queen parity. Then thought I was beyond genius fixing the parity by taking c4 pawn first and threatening the c5 pawn to make it move. Then Magnus refused to move the pawn and I realized I am an idiot and just made a draw. Very instructive. :)

wow, amazing puzzle! it's a parity thing right? the queen and the knight both alternate coloured squares at the same time, so you have to make sure that you're on the right colour relative to the queen when you promote. if they're able to push the pawn on c5, they have the option to flip the parity, which means they can always make the game drawn.

@ritwikghosh7743

2 жыл бұрын

I had thought the same before, but actually that way it'll not be possible. Bcoz if we do the pawn error initially by moving it 2 squares, then once the white knight captures the c4 pawn, black will never actually play the c5 pawn to c4. This way whenever the knight comes to attack the rook, queen will always be available on a2 to protect the rook and checkmate will not be possible. In these puzzles, we always consider that both sides play the best move, so black will definitely be aware and not play c5 to c4 to protect the rook. So, the only way to win for white is the way it's shown in the video.

@deadbabyseal3356

Neat

My first thought on the timing issue was 'Couldn't you just waste a move on the knight until the Queen was in the right spot?' But then I realized of course you can't. But it also simplifies things...the Queen moves Dark-Light-Dark-Light because it's stuck as the only move...and all Knights always move Dark-Light-Dark-Light. So you don't actually need to calculate every step, you just need to know you want to promote on the dark square while the Queen is on the light one... so that you'll hit the light one when the queen is on dark. Once you do that you could fumble around the board for 30 moves and not screw up the timing, it's locked in.

I think the solution of the puzzle given at the end is queen to e8 because after the rook moves to capture the queen, we can simply give a check with the bishop on d5 and white has to sacrifice his queen and rook since king has nowhere to go and after that we can simply promote either of our pass pawns because king can’t stop both the pieces at the same time...

The easy way to realize how to calculate ahead: The knight will always move from light to dark to light squares. The queen, in this case too. We want to move to a light square after the queen moved to a dark square. So we have to promote on, h8 (a dark square) on the turn when the queen is on a light square. We can't take the c4 pawn, as that allows the black queen to stall a turn.

@@tiemen9095 I get you, but I didn't know your skill level, so I was just going off of your exact words.

Useful tips: knights can only move to an opposite color, and same for pawns on normal moves. The trapped black queen metronome is also just oscillating those two colors. Since you want checkmate from B3 (white square), and the only defense is black queen on A2 (white square), you want to move to a white square when the black queen is on a black square. Hence, first move of the white pawn, the only chance to choose a color, is to choose a white square on h3.

White suddenly got a strategy! Till then he lost all pieces but a pone, without managing to capture nothing...

Jeremy Torres It’s also helpful to remember that white pawns always start in row 2 and black pawns always start in row 7. All these comments criticizing the puzzle for being ambiguous are misguided because the included grid leaves no room for ambiguity. What’s funny is that most chess puzzles with pawns actually rely on the grid to definitively state the direction of movement, but most people pay no attention to this and simply assume that white pawns are moving “up” the board and black pawns are moving “down” the board. Now that the normally assumed direction of movement is less convenient, however, people want to say it’s ambiguous.

It’s not checkmate because the rook in e8 could come down to e6 to block the check. Then you take with bishop and queen takes bishop then you take queen with the pawn in f5

Actually you can take the c4 pawn first if you did the h pawn 2 squares. Reason: both are bad situations. An offset in squares/numbers. For instance, the queen will be in the white square every odd number of moves, while it is in the brown every even. However, if you do a double, instead of that, the sequence will be flipped. Meaning you'll need 1 extra move to make sure the queen isn't on the white square. Pawn 4, queen w, pawn 5, queen b, pawn 6, queen w, pawn 7, queen b, pawn 8 (knight), queen w. At this point take out pawn 4. Knight 7, queen b, knight 5, queen w, knight 4, queen b, knight 6, pawn 4, knight 4 queen w, knight 5, queen b, knight 3. If the pawn is moved after a queen move: Knight 6, queen w, knight 5, pawn 4, knight 6, queen b, knight 4, queen w, knight 5, queen b, knight 3, mate.

Puzzle - Qe8+, Rxe8, Bd5+, Qe6, Bxe6, Rxe6, fxe6 After this black can either move Ng5 in which case Rxg5 and after that its just a pawn promotion queen rook mate or Nf8 in which case e7 and if knight moves then e8Q+, Kh7, Qh8#, if knight does not move then exf8Q+, Kh7, Qh8# or if black does any pawn move on the left then e7, Kf7, g8Q+, Kxe7, Qxh7+ and after that its just a queen rook mate.

I'm kinda late but I'll give it a try. So for the last puzzle we got: Qe8+, Rxe8 Bd5+, Re6 Bxe6, Qxe6 fxe6 and so on... in this case White has traded a Queen and a Bishop for a Rook and a Queen and White is left with a Rook and two threats of promoting a pawn to Queen in e6 and g7 while Black is left with a Knight and his pawns are too far from promoting. The other possible scenario (but a lot worse for Black) is: Qe8+, Nf8 gxf8=Q++ followed by Qg7# This scenario doesn't make sense for Black to play, I'm just posting it as the second option for Black at Qe8+ which starts the whole sequence in both scenarios.

First queen e8 ,the queen sacrifice is important because we have to get rid of rook now rook e8 is a forced move now bishop d5 and now a checkmate the king just can go to h8 or f8 but our pawn is protecting both squares

@Thorn596

It's not mate bc there's Re6

It is better to capture the pawn on c5 before c4 because the pawn on c5 isn't immediately forced to move, it should postpone it, but Nd7 would make white want to move it to c4, a tempo which may or may not happen would influence the square the queen is on. If the queen isn't wading between the 2 squares in sync with the colors the knight is moving between, it would result in a draw. Always start with h3 and aim to capture on c5 first.

such a beautiful puzzle. It is almost a tiny little piece of art

This is clickbait, honestly its a really easy puzzle because at the start you are limited to 5 different moves and there is a clear move to take, then you are limited to 2 moves for the pawn, the only pieces you should ever really promote to are queen and knight so again 2 choices, and then its just a matter of finding the string of moves to get into checkmate. The puzzle is very limited and unless you are put on a 1 minute timer or such it should be solvable for someone who plays chess even casually. It lacks much variety.

I always end up in this situation thank you for explaining how to win from this

My first thought seeing the board. Nice happy united family of the black pieces 😍

Ok. The solution is: 1) queen to e8. The rook will take the queen. 2)white squared bishop to d5. The rook will defend the king by moving to e6. 3) take the rook with the bishop. The queen will have to take the bishop as it is a checkmate situation. 4)take the queen with the pawn on f5. 5)the black knight is helpless so continue moving the pawn forward. 6)Promote it to either rook or queen its a check. 7)The knight would have to defend it. Take the knight with either ur queen or ur rook.(depends on ur promotion.) And give a check. 8)the black king can only move to h7. 9)Move ur queen or rook to h8 and its a beautiful checkmate. Hope this is correct.😁😁

Can you please explain all the types of draws in chess and also how to avoid them?

When I play this against Stockfish being white, Stockfish always seems to promote the pawn to a queen, so it always ends up in a draw. Interesting how Stockfish can't find the knight continuation...

I figure the winning move is KxN. Any other move, and Black moves the Knight out of the way, and promotes the e Pawn and wins. After KxN by White, though, White's King can just sit there, White can push his King's Rook Pawn and promote it, and all Black can do is move his Queen back and forth. Now, how White wins after promoting the Pawn is another question.

Qe8+ for that last puzzle is best because: Black only has two legal moves, take with the rook or block with the night. If white takes with the rook then you move your next move is Bd5#. If black however blocks with the night you take with the pawn and promote to a queen, from there it's mate in a few moves

@dreamsolutions3037

3 жыл бұрын

Bd5 is not mate after rook takes, although it is still winning. Since the rook is on the e file, it can block with re6 ; bishop takes on e6 check, queen takes bishop; pawn takes queen, and then black cant stop White's pawn from advancing in the e file. If the king leaves his square after pawn e7, black will have 2 passed pawns, and if he stays its mate as soon as the e pawn promotes to queen.

@dreamsolutions3037

3 жыл бұрын

Qe6 also blocks the bishop's attack. It results in the same ending, though

What if you both moved your pawn two spaces to begin with, and took the c4 pawn first? You should still be able to mate, right? Here's the knight's movement path: F7 or G6, E5, C4 (take Pawn), D6. The Queen is in row 1. If the pawn at C5 moves down, you take it immediately. Queen moves to row 2. A5, Queen moves to row 1, B3, mate. Otherwise, queen to A2. Knight to B7. Queen A1. ...Draw. The moment Black moves their unprotected pawn, they lose. But who says they have to? The moment White takes the unprotected pawn, they lose. White cannot reach B5 with their Knight in an even number of moves. All other pieces are protected, so we can't take them and expect to mate. Adding to that, D4 is protected by that damn C5 pawn - not that we could reach it in an even number of moves, anyways. Really, the moment we move that pawn two spaces, our fate is sealed.

@@KingZorLink21 yeah , realized on diving a bit deeper into comments

Great moment when you realize the queen and your knight switch the square color on each move. So it's important where the queen is when you promote. Whatever steps you make to take out the pawns don't matter from that point. You can really screw up if you (like me) think "I'll get me the knight and see from then on." Brilliant, indeed.

the move at the end is qE8 which forces the opponent to either eat the queen with the rook or block it with the horse. The solution in each scenario is: 1) in case of rxE8: play bD5 check where your opponent would be forced to sacrifice their rook and their queen for the bishop to avoid imminent checkmate but you could still develop your now passed pawn from eating the queen to get checkmate by getting a new queen/rook. If the opponent decides to play hF8 then you just play E7 in which case the opponent either moves the horse or leaves it for you to eat but either way you should move your pawn to the E8 and get a queen. after that it takes less than 7 moves to checkmate. 2) In case of hF8: play xF8 with your pawn and the only eligible move for white would be kH7 which would then allow you to play qG6 with your original queen for checkmate.

The beautiful thing is that a knight can never waste a move, if h4 the knight will always take on G6 when the queen is on H7.

Everyone:talking about pro stuff in chess Me:I'M SO HAPPY THE SMALL SOLDIERS CANT MOVE BACKWARDS

in order to get this position youd need to carefully coordinate 14 pawn captures, leaving just the king and h2 pawn left xD itd be nuts but theoretically possible

Wow. I always wondered how to defeat this style of play! Thanks!

Queen to e8 then if black becomes greedy and takes your queen bishop to d5 is a beautiful checkmate as if he moves the king to h8 or f8 the pawn can take the king and if the king takes the pawn the rook can take the king if he doesn't use the king then he's gone

I never thought promoting to a knight would've ever been the best option, but know I do!

I loved this puzzle and your explanation of how it worked. I didn’t get very far on my own but I understood it. Thank!

First, this knight on e1 is free to move so we'll capture this knight with our king, now black has one legal move Qa1, now we move our pawn to h3 , then black plays Qa2, keep moving your pawn, when your pawn reaches h8 , underpromote the pawn to a knight, then capture the c5 pawn, then the c4 pawn then Nxb3#

end puzzle: idk if that’s the correct solution but i found a forcing bishop for rook trade for white: deflect rook with Qe8+, Rxe8, then Bd5+ would be mate, but black can defend with either rook or queen on e6. Either way, same threat after Bxe6+, after which the piece black decided to spare a move earlier is forced to recapture. After fxe6, black king cannot blockade both passed pawns (since g pawn is protected by rook), so white is up a lot of material in the end and can easily checkmate somehow.
