Usually the diagrams for those combinations were already published in my newsletter. Easy puzzles are 1-3 ply, Medium are 5-7 ply, and Hard are 9+ ply. I saved this one as FORK Hard Black:

| | tpstar: <OhioChessFan> Thank you very much! That game went 1. e3 e5 2. f3 d5 3. g3 f5 etc.
For our K-12 teaching program, we encourage 1. e4 e5 every game, then they can play whatever they want once over 1000. I saved this game so I can remember that she needs to play 1. e4, and then meet 1 ... e5 with 2. Nf3. We reviewed how 2. f3?! takes away the best square for the KN while weakening the Kingside. When juniors lose early, it's because they didn't bother to castle, so Castle Early/King Safety is the seventh opening principle. |
