1.Rxh7+ Kxh7 (not taking doesn’t help and loses to 1. .., Kg8 2. Ng8+, Kf8 3. Rh8#)
2.Rh1+ Bh4 (Kh8 loses in a similar way as above and Bh4 only delays)
3.Rxh4+ Kg6
4.Nf4+ Kf6
5.Qe6+ Kg5
6.Rg4#
1. Rxh7+ Kxh7
2. Rh1+ Kg8 (2…Kg6, 3 Qh5#)
3. Nd8+ Kf8
4. Qf7#
Rh7 followed by Qh5+ or Nb7+
i think, it´s
1. Rxh7+ Kxh7
2. Rh1+ Kg8 (Kg6, 3. Qh5#)
3. Ng5+ Kf8
4. Qf7#
greets, jan
Black threatens mate in 1 so White must find either find forcing moves or block the f6 Bishop to stand a chance. This easily leads to
1. Rxh7+! Kxh7
(1…. Kg8 2. Ng5+ Kf8 3. Qf7++)
2. Rh1+ Bh4
3. Rxh4+ Kg6
(3…. Kg8 4. Ng5+ Kf8 5. Qf7++ similar to above)
4. Nf4+ Kf6
5. Bd4++
This is a repost, I think..
Rxh7+ is the move for white..
After 1. Rxh7+ if Kxh7, 2. Rh1+ Kg8 (Kg6 leads to immediate mate with Nf4) 3. Nc7+ Kf8 and 4 e7+ mates the king.. If after 1. Rxh7 Kg8, than 2. Ng5+ will end up in similar mate..
1. Rxh7+
1…Kg8
2. Ng5+ Kf8
3. Qf7#
1…Kxh7
2. Rh1+
2…Kg6
3. Nf4#
2…Kg8
3. Ng5+ Kf8
4. Qf7#
2…Bh4
3. Rxh4+ Kg6
4. Nf4+ Kf6
5. Bd4#
I suggest same solution as to the puzzle you gave us 10/26/2011 🙂
1. Rxh7+
1. … Kg8
2. Ng5+ Kf8
3. Qf7#
1. … Kxh7
2. Rh1+
2. … Kg6
3. Qh5#
2. … Kg8
3. Ng5+ Kf8
4. Qf7#
Wasn’t this posted too recently???
1. Rxh7+! Kxh7
2. Rh1+ Kg8
3. Ng5+ Kf8
4. Qf7#
White mates in four.
Black mate in one.
This is a repeat
Since Black has mate in 2 (…Ra2+ then Qb2#), White’s win must involve checks to force mate:
1.Rh7+ Kh7 (forced, otherwise it’s mate on f7 after 1…Kg8, 2.Ng5+ etc.)
2.Rh1+ Bh4 (prolongs the inevitable)
3.Rh4+ Kg6
4.Nf4+ Kf6
5.Bd4#
White has a mating attack. 1.Rxh7+ Kxh7 2.Rh1+ Kg6 3.Nf8+ Rxf8 4.Qh5#
1.Rxh7+ Kxh7 2.Rh1+ Bh4 3.Rxh4+ Kg8 4.Nd8+ Kf8 5.Qf7# White wins.
