Feb-28-22		Phony Benoni: thank you, my brother.

Feb-28-22		Brenin: 39 Rxh6+ gxh6 40 Rh7 mate. The Q looks on in useless admiration.

Feb-28-22		mel gibson: Easy peasy- LOL

Feb-28-22		perfidious: Dang, even <Ah> had an easy git heah!

Feb-28-22		Brenin: The start of the mating combination, 37 Ng6+, would make a more challenging puzzle.

Feb-28-22		perfidious: <Brenin>, so it would, and doubtless we shall see this is a POTD with White to play, two moves sooner, sometime.

Feb-28-22		Brenin: The R on g8 is one of Lenin's "useful idiots".

Feb-28-22		BxChess: Black appears already lost by 36. h5. Even the desparate 36...Rxh5 leads to 37. Rxh5 h6 38. Ng6+ Kh7 39. Qe4 followed by mate.

Feb-28-22		Breunor: Now that’s a Monday puzzle! Great to get an effortless one after the hard ones at the end of last week.

Feb-28-22		al wazir: 27. Ne6 Nf6 28. Nxc7 Rxc7 29. Bxf6 Qxf6 30. Bxe4 wins a ♙.

Feb-28-22		agb2002: White has a rook and a pawn for a bishop. The pawn on g7 prevents Rh7#. Therefore, 39.Rxh6+ gxh6 40.Rh7#.

Feb-28-22		stacase: Easy easy easy!

Feb-28-22		whiteshark: Faster than a blink of an eye.

Feb-28-22		AlicesKnight: With the exchange up and a dominating position, most moves should lead to a White win. But 39.Rxh6+ gxh6; 40.Rh7# allows more time for tea.

Feb-28-22		goodevans: Would make a nice midweek puzzle starting on White's 37th: click for larger view

Feb-28-22		Cheapo by the Dozen: Heavy piece sacrificed on the h-file, leading to a quick mate. Yes, it's Monday!

Feb-28-22		TheaN: I agree I'd enjoy this one more from move 37, as that's actually forced <#6>, regardless that it looks like Black might have some escape. After 37.Ng6+ Rxg6 38.hxg6 (37....Qxg6 38.hxg6 doesn't change anything as the White queen is still an onlooker unless 38....Rxg6 39.Qxg6 #2), we have an <undefendable single attack>: click for larger view These are rare: Black has no defense against an intrusion on the h-file. 38....h5 39.Rxh5#, 38....h6 <39.Rxh6+ gxh6 40.Rh7#>, 38....Qxg6 39.Qxg6 h6 (else #) 40.Rxh6+ gxh6 41.Rh7#. The only two lines with prolonging mate occur after 38....Re8 creating air, 39.Rxh7+ Kg8 40.Rh8+ Kxh8 41.Qh5+, now the queen's active!, 41....Kg8 42.Qh7+ Kf8 43.Qh8#. The other longest line is amusing as Black throws all pieces: 38....Qxf2+ 39.Kxf2 Bh4 40.Rxh4 Rf8+ 41.Kg2 Rf2+ 42.Kxf2 #1 click for larger view Hmyesh. 43.Rb8# or Qc8#

Feb-28-22		chrisowen: And give it aid c Rh6 is rush no?

Feb-28-22		Brenin: It's hard to identify a specific point where Black went wrong: his position seemed deteriorate steadily from the opening untl 36 ... Rg5?, when 37 Ng6+ leads to a forced mate, as <TheaN> has shown us. Instead, 36 ... Rge8 would have given Black's K some breathing space, but even so, 37 Ng6+ Kg8 (37 ... hxg6 38 hxg6+ Kg8 39 Qh3 with mate to follow) 38 Nxe5 is crushing.

Feb-28-22		TheaN: Going back from the mate combination, I realize White played a pretty good game all around. Black actually went from bad to worse with 19....Bc8 with the intention to block Rb7, but 20.d5! is very strong, as this underlines White's strong double fiancietto. Once the dark squared bishop opens up, it's game over. Before this, SF isn't happy with Black's expansion 9....a5. White passed up on a very dominating position with 12.Ne1?, pretty much the only real mistake from White, as 12....Qxd1= is even. After 12....Qh6 Black's troubles really start, as White's dominating the board, starting with 19.d5 and ending definitely with 37.Ng6+.

Feb-28-22		TheaN: <Brenin> hah, great minds think alike, as once I realized Ng6+ was forced mate I started going back as well. Black's approach of the Dutch here is questionable at best.

Feb-28-22		Hercdon: It is amazing the amount of stuff <chrisowen> comes up with for a mate in 2

Feb-28-22		chrisowen: No quiff h6

Feb-28-22		gawain: White knocks out Black with the old one-two from the rooks. An ideal start to the week.
