White to move. How can White save this game?
1. Rh5+
If 1. … Nxh5 then 2. Qxh5#
Therefore Black has to play 1. … Kxg4
2. f3 and Black’s only defense is 2. …Qxf3
3.Qxh3#
Easy.
1.Rh5+ if black takes with the knight, 1…Nxh5, then, 2.Qxh5#, so black has only one choice, 1…Kxg4 2.f3+ Qxf3+ 3.Qxf3#

On your video game pad it is the button next to “select” button. Press save and then turn off your video game system and go to bed.
1 Rh5+ Kxg4
2 f3+ Kf5
and white’s just lost a rook, right?

No, the rook’s still on h5.
Dumb comment, Mark.
