I think the best move is 1. G6 [immediately threatening the Queen on f7 and checkmate with 2. Qh7] If . .Qxf6 2. Qh7# [checkmate with pawn and Queen] Or, if 1. Hxg6 2. Ng5 [renews threat of mate on h7] 2. Ne8 [to give the Queen access to h7, but allows] 3. Qh8# [checkmate with the Queen and Bishop] 1. .Qxg6 [best play for Black] 2. Bxg7 Qxh6 3. Bxh6 [White gains a Knight and Queen for a pawn and queen] JDog From: blind-chess-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:blind-chess-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Richard Dinger (Redacted sender "rrdinger@xxxxxxxxxx" for DMARC) Sent: Thursday, January 08, 2015 10:46 AM To: chess Subject: [blind-chess] Problem WAC120 Problem WAC 120 White to move FEN: r4rk1/ 1bn2qnp/ 3p1B1Q/ p2P1pP1/ 1pp5/ 5N1P/ PPB2P2/ 2KR3R w - - 0 1 Short Algebraic Problem Setup: White: Kc1, Qh6, Rd1, Rh1, Bc2, Bf6, Nf3, Pa2, Pb2, Pd5, Pf2, Pg5, Ph3 Black: Kg8, Qf7, Ra8, Rf8, Bb7, Nc7, Ng7, Pa5, Pb4, Pc4, Pd6, Pf5, Ph7
