Jul-10-12 | | Poulsen: In any case: black's Ng4 was simply a desperado move since he was about to lose the knight - and the game. |
|
Jul-10-12 | | zb2cr: Quick win of a Rook by 24. Qxg7+, Kxg7; 25. Bxc7. This is simple. |
|
Jul-10-12 | | Patriot: Black threatens 24...Nxh6 or 24...Qxf4.
Therefore, 24.Qxg7+ looks correct. 24...Kxg7 25.Bxc7, winning a rook . |
|
Jul-10-12 | | Patriot: I like the zwischenzug many of you mentioned: 25.Nxe6+ fxe6 26.Bxc7. That's good chess! |
|
Jul-10-12 | | whiteshark: <24.Qxg7+ Kxg7 25.Nxe6+ fxe6 26.Bxc7> and that's it. |
|
Jul-10-12 | | poszvald: Really easy!
Qxg7+ Kxq7
Nxe6+ fxe6
Bxc7  |
|
Jul-10-12 | | Deji: Rook down! |
|
Jul-10-12
 | | benveniste: Free Rook! Play Free Rook! |
|
Jul-10-12 | | kevin86: White gives up his queen for a rook and the takes the adverse queen for free! Desperado! |
|
Jul-10-12 | | hedgeh0g: An obvious exploitation of a clear blunder. I find it hard to believe a 2372 player would make such a gross error, time pressure not withstanding. |
|
Jul-10-12 | | PinnedPiece: Possibly the C division in the Olympiad? |
|
Jul-10-12 | | BlackSheep: Qxg7+,Nxe6+,Bxc7 1-0 , seemed a bit simplistic for a Wednesday I thought , then it came to me . |
|

 | | chrisowen: So coax queen meal is herd it to in for browserd in? |
|
Jul-10-12 | | hrobert5: <24.Qxg7+ Kxg7 25.Nxe6+ fxe6 26.Bxc7> Its all good after that! |
|
Jul-10-12 | | dragon player: This is winning:
24.Qxg7+ Kxg7
25.Bxc7
but is it the solution. It seems too simple to me. But I wouldn't know
what else to do.
Time to check.
------------
Right, I guess.

Jul-10-12 | | BarcelonaFirenze: I don't think this is a real puzzle... Too obvious... |
|
Jul-10-12 | | EXIDE: Is todays position considered a puzzle? No theme to say it is, just winning a piece. |
|
Jul-10-12 | | Calar: <hedgeh0g: I find it hard to believe a 2372 player would make such a gross error, time pressure not withstanding.> In that case - check this game, starting with White's 23rd move. I Krush vs A Zatonskih, 2012 |
|
Jul-10-12 | | bischopper: first to take piece 24.Qg7+... and then the queen...It is easy in this time. |
|
Jul-10-12 | | twinlark: <hedgeh0g: I find it hard to believe a 2372 player would make such a gross error, time pressure not withstanding.> Are you talking about <23...Ng4>? By that time it was far too late. Black's gross blunder was as far back as <16...g6>, and White's attack virtually plays itself. |
|
Jul-10-12 | | BadKnight: play couple of forcing moves then capture the queen on c7. so Qxg7, Nxe6, Bxc7 etc. |
|
Jul-10-12 | | weisyschwarz: Even I got it, the least of patzers, and I agree with the further simplification of Nxe6+. Thanks, <CG.COM>! |
|
Jul-10-12 | | TheBish: V Hamitevici vs S Burns-Mannion, 2010 White to play (24.?) "Easy", Black is up a pawn.
Both queens are attacked, so it seems the last move must have been 23...N(e5)g4, offering a trade of queens. Not a bad idea, but here it loses a rook! 24. Qxg7+! Kxg7 25. Bxc7 and now Black can resign. A simple desperado, but it looks like Black was lost anyway. |
|
Jul-10-12 | | M.Hassan: <hedgeh0g: I find it hard to believe a 2372 player would make such a gross error, time pressure not withstanding.> I do not endorse his move but:
What other move you would have done? |
|
Jul-11-12 | | Abdel Irada: <Random musings>
I continue to wonder: Can these puzzles be set up in some manner such that one can publish one's answer to them without seeing other players' answers? Until this happens, there will always be a nagging uncertainty as to whether solvers have used their own analysis or regurgitated someone else's. (After this, the next impossible task: to find some way to rule out computer assistance. Although I'd *like* to believe that most players see that there is no benefit to them in "solving" a puzzle by consulting an engine, I suspect that ego leads some to do so anyway so as to seem to have found the answer.) |
