  1)Dg7+ Txg7
  2)hxg7++ Rg8
  3)Th8#
  ou bien 1)Dg7+ Fxg7 2)hxg7#
  C’était pas trop difficile 🙂

  qg7+, this forces either Bx or Rx. In both cases, hxg7++ or hxg7+ followed by Rh8++.

  Your puzzles are getting easier 🙂

  Hello GM Polgar,

  Something happened to my original post. It says something about comment moderation. You going to read all comments first and post? Sounds like a full time job 🙂

  I think its Qg7+. Regardless of what takes back the pawn then takes with check. Then Kg8 forced and Rh8#.
