| May-06-09 | | soberknight: Very similar to another game where Black plays 8...Na6 but makes the 9...Rb8 blunder, forgetting why he put the knight there in the first place. Look in "similar games." |

| Jan-27-14 | | yureesystem: This is so cruel but brilliant!! |

 | | Phony Benoni: One look at the diagram, and it was easy to diagnose a Blackmar-Diemer.
Where else could Black manage, within nine moves, to develop five pieces, win a pawn, and get posterized? |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | MountainMatt: Another poor shlub gets befuddled by some gambit play. I can relate all too well...10. Qxb8 Nxb8 11. Nxc7# |
|

 | | FSR: 10.Qxb8+ and 11.Nxc7#. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | patzer2: Took me a minute to solve this Monday puzzle.
I suppose I didn't see it at a glance because 10. Qxb8+ Nxb8 11. Nxc7# combines the decoy, deflection, clearance and smothered mate theme in one simple two-move mate. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | der623: <Phony Benoni> Bravo on a funny, keenly observed, and pithy comment. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | weary willy: Or the alternative - giving a check first - 10.Nxc7+ kd8 11.Qxb8++ because the knight is pinned.

Oh, hang on ... |

| Jun-09-14 | | mathlover: Ha ha
U have to be brilliant to be cruel in CHESS. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | ThunderFire234: <weary willy> That doesn't work since the black queen is on b4 so after Nxc7 Kd8 Qb8 doesn't work due to Qxb8 |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | agb2002: White is one pawn down.
Black threatens 10... Rxb7 and 10... Bxd1.
If 10.Nxc7+ the black king can hide behind the knight on d7. Hence, 10.Qxb8+ Nxb8 11.Nxc7#. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | morfishine: 10.Qxb8+ Nxb8 11.Nxc7# |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | Oxspawn: Slightly easier than Sunday's position! The white knight shields the queen and then delivers the mortal strike. 10. Qxb8 Nxb8
11. Nxc7++
Move 8 (Nb5) is the killer blow. Black left defenceless and ultimately nameless. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | Chess Dad: It took longer than it should. Perhaps 5 minutes.
10. Qxb8+ Nxb8 11. Nxc7# |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | Refused: Instant solution to anybody who has ever seen the Blackmer-Diemer gambit. Qxb8+ Nxb8 Nxc7# |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | kolwax: its an excellent and tricky puzzle for a monday. monday puzzles rarely come with queen sacrifices. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | zb2cr: A little harder to see than the typical Monday, because the mating pattern is unusual. 10. Qxb8+, Nxb8; 11.Nc7#. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | Cheapo by the Dozen: This took me almost a minute, which makes it the trickiest Monday puzzle in a while. I kept getting distracted by Black's queen, apparently but not really hanging to a discovered attack. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | Nick46: Blackmar-who? I deem this far too difficult for a Monday. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | whiteshark: According to CB Corr. Database 2013 it's:
[Event "corr"]
[Site "corr"]
[Date "1986.??.??"]
[White "Paschmann, S."]
[Black "Kurschat"]
[Result "1-0"]
[ECO "D00"]
[EventType "team (corr)"] |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | Castleinthesky: It took more of my brain (I had to use a fire extinguisher) than usual for a Monday to solve this one. A nice puzzle none-the-less. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | kevin86: I saw the sac immediately (it is Monday). I was looking for a rook mate and saw the knight mate instead. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | Capacorn: Funny...black sees that 8...Bxf3?? fails to 9.Nxc7#, yet he completely forgets this theme and plays 9...Rb8, falling to the very same idea. I can see this happening to me in a blitz game. "It's safe to do this now." lol |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | Refused: Well at that point black was already in deep trouble. Blacks only try to keep the game going for a bit was
9...Qe4
But that just prolongs the suffering.
Black winds up again three connected passed pawns on the Queenside at best. |
|
| Jun-09-14 | | BOSTER: According to< hedgehog> Diemer named each defense he encountered after the first person that played it against him .
This is Halosar trap. |
