    I think this is uncalled for.

    Prof. Bhatt has just pointed out that mate can also be delivered by Qh5. He has said that in a manner aimed at generating some humor. Nothing wrong in that.

  1. Q:f5+ ?? gf 2. Rh7+ Kf4 3. Nh5+ (or 3. Ne2+) Ke5. Now what? No more Q, no more checks.

  1. f3+ is correct with the main variation 1…ef 2. B:f5+ gf 3. Q:f5+ K:h4 and now White mates by either 4. R:h7 or 4. Qh5.

  Note how politically correct I am to not choose sides between the PRofessor and Oleg. 🙂

  There is one more alternative to choose from, if we are looking for a complete solution. 4. Qf4# works as good as 4. Rxh7# and 4. Qh5#.

    You are right .4Qf4 is also mate.I had overlooked it. I feel extremely sorry if my earlier comment has hurt you and it should not matter to anybody else.

      I am not hurt at all, PROF.S.G.BHAT. Why should I? 🙂 Chess is a game of many possibilities and alternatives. Sometimes it’s not easy to see them all at once.

      Wishing you and the rest of you guys here a Happy New and creative chess Year! 🙂
