Good Morning Puzzlers,
For those that have not read the posts by Chris, Paul and Dave for this
problem, I strongly encourage you to read their problem solutions. Paul's
analysis is particularly in-depth and you can learn a great deal by studying it
carefully. The problem solution is revealed below.
The best move is: 1. Qf8+
Principle:
At first glance, the Knight fork of King and Queen is tempting, but Paul's
analysis shows Black has a forced mate on that line.
The keys to this problem appear to be the back rank mating position and the
heavy pieces focused on the F-File.
I encourage those that are interested in this tough problem, to read Paul's
complete analysis, as I am unable to do it justice.
The forced mate in two follows.
1. Qf8+ Rxf8
2. Rxf8#
