May-08-19  Olsonist: I love Mondays.
May-08-19  Stale.Mate: Easiest puzzle in months.
May-08-19  stacase: A whole lot easier than yesterday (-: Especially since I didn't expect 24...Qxd5 - Sort of like manna from heaven.
May-08-19  Cheapo by the Dozen: Material is dead even, and Bxd5 forks queen and knight, so if Black's queen keeps defending her king Black has to lose material.

Fortunately, the main Zwischenzug response idea -- namely ... g6 -- happens not to work.

  Jimfromprovidence: I got the straightforward 24 Bxd5 Qb6 25 Bxb7.

May-08-19  drollere: i had
24. Bxd5 Qb6
25. Bf7 Nd8
26. e6 Nxf7
27. Qg6+ Kh8
28. Qxg7#
May-08-19  agb2002: White has the bishop pair for a bishop and a knight.

Black threatens dxc4.

The black queen is overburdened with the defense of g6 and d5. Therefore, 24.Bxd5:

A) 24... Qxd5 25.Qg6+ Kg(h)8 26.Qxg7#.

B) 24... g6 25.Qxh6+ Kg8 26.Qxg6+ Kh8 (the queen is pinned) 27.Qg7#.

C) 24... Qa(b)6 25.Bxb7 (25.e6 Rf6) wins a piece (25... Qxb7 as in A).

May-08-19  Walter Glattke: My view from the website was 24.Bxd5 Qxd5 25.Rxg7+ Kg7 25.Qxh6+, but the view from the analysis board then showed 26.Bxh6+ e.g. Kh8 27.Bxf8+ Kh8 28.Bxf8+ Kg8 or 25.Qxh6+ Kf7 both escape, so with 24.Bxd5 Qf7 25.Bxf7 Rxf7 26.Qxf7 Bf8 or 26.Qg6+ Kg8 27.e6 Raf8 28.Bxh6 Bf6. White wins decisive material with only 24.-Qf7 25.Qxf7 Rxf7 26.Bxb7 Ra8 27.Be4+ Kh8 28.f4 Bxh4 29.Rh3
May-08-19  Walter Glattke: Overlooked a pawn, 27.Bf3 in the last example.
May-08-19  drollere: <I got the straightforward 24 Bxd5 Qb6 25 Bxb7.>

i looked at that too, and enjoyed the free lunch; but closing the 6 rank seemed better.

May-08-19  Walter Glattke: B) White also could play 24.-g6 25.Bxe6+ Rf7 26.Rxg6#
May-08-19  Lowie: What about 24...Qxe5 25. Qg6+ Kh8 26. Bxh6 Bf6 ?
May-08-19  saturn2: I saw 24. Bxd5 g6 25. Qxh6+ Kg8 26. Bxe6+

<Lowie: What about 24...Qxe5> 25 Bxb7 looses a piece.

  HeMateMe: remove the defender, that was pretty easy, a familiar pattern.
May-08-19  messachess: Incomprehensibly easy for Wednesday.
May-08-19  TheaN: Would like to point out <24.Bxd5 Qxe5> is still a bit tricky as the Black Queen defends g7 and takes control of the long diagonal, one slip up from White and Black may be able to take over the attack.

Best is <25.Bxh6 #4> immediately due to the combined threat of the discovered check (mate, currently) and Qg6+. One move longer is <25.Qg6+ #5 Kh8 26.Bxh6<>> as Black has Rf7 but it doesn't give Black time to attack.

May-08-19  malt: 24.B:d5 Qb6

(24...Q:d5 25.Qg6+ Kh8 26.Q:g7# )
(24...Q:e5 25.B:h6 g6 26.Q:g6+ Kh8 27.B:f8 Q:g3 )

25.B:b7 g5 26.hg5 Qg6 27.Q:g6+ K:g6 28.gh6+ Kh7 29.Rg7+ Kh8 30.B:a8

May-08-19  The Kings Domain: 5) Qe2's ugly but it certainly didn't hurt white. Nice puzzle and fine game.
May-08-19  AdV: After 24...Qxe5 25.Bf4 looks annoying for Black as the theme of 26.Qg6+ followed by mate on g7 comes back into play
May-08-19  Momentum Man: Usually, the en passant capture is best. But here the Bishop capture and deflection of the black queen is better
May-08-19  lzromeu: A set of useless move by black king, lose tempo, lost game!
May-08-19  King.Arthur.Brazil: Almost like everybody, I saw 24.Bxd5 instantly, but I supposed that black would reply Qxe5. Then, it will follow 25.Qg6+ Kh8 (unique) but now there's not 26.Qg7# obviously, nor 26.Te1? Qf6. The winning move is now 26.Bxh6. Black has not g7xBh6 27.Qxh6#, neither 26... Qf6 27. Bxg7+Qxg7 28.Qxg7#. What lasts more is 26... Bf6 27. Bxg7+ Bxg7 28. Qh5+ Bh6 29. Qxh6#. Thefore after 24.Bxd5, Black could resign.

  Breunor: Seems like it's getting easier as the week goes on.
May-08-19  King.Arthur.Brazil: For the move 24... Qxe5 the check 26. Qg6+ is stronger than the sacrificy 26. Bxh6 because it wins a tempo from the defence.

For the other move 24... Qb6(!) instead of 25. Bf7 Bf6, I would like 25. e6 Bf7(forced) 26. Qg6+ Kh8 27.Bxh6 and there's no way to avoid mate: for example, 26... gxh6 27.Qh6# or 26... Rg8 27.Bxg7+:

A- Bxg7 28.Qh5+ Bh6 29.Qxh6#,
B-Rxg7 28.Qh6+ Rh7 29. Bxf6#.
I guess that this solution is more elegant.
