People don’t always speak the same language and this causes miscommunication and confusion. The first comment to Susan’s original post, on Wednesday, June 14, 2006 12:43:42 AM by an anonymous person, uses the symbol, ++, for checkmate. Contrast this with the fourth comment to Susan’s original post, on Wednesday, June 14, 2006 7:59:29 AM by an anonymous person, uses the Informant symbol, #, for checkmate.
Why can’t we all use the same symbols? One reason is that various conventions for using chess symbols do not all originate from the same source.

Be3+
Is that right?

Seems little easy. I got it in few min 🙂
The correct solution is;
1.Be3, Ka8
2.Nc7# checkmate
or
1.Be3, b6
2.Rc7, Ka8
3.Nc7# checkmate
l think the first is the quickest way to checkmate blacks King, would you agree with me Susan?
anyone else?
durham red, what do you do after 1 Be3+ b6 2 Rc7+ Rb7? 3 Bxb6+ Ka8 is good for White, but I don’t see a mate.
and which chess rule allows in the “mating line”
1.be3+ b6
2.rc7+ ka8
3.nc7# (impossible move)
the white rook to share it’s field with his knight?
:-))
ok vahaul,
The CORRECT solution is,
1.b7+,a8
2Nc7#checkmate
or
1.b7+, a6
2.N7# checkmate
just checking to see if you guys and girls got their cheesbrain in gear :-))
