    @TheWinstonDouble Před 3 lety

    My first thought was to sacrifice the knight and queen to tie up the position going [(1) Nc2+, Rxc2 (2) Qxb4+, Bxb4 (3) Rd1, Qxd1 (4) axb4#] but soon realized the Rd1 move could simply be countered by sacrificing the queen, playing b3. Giving the king an escape and being up material. So after about another 40 minutes and a lot of dead end ideas I'm pretty sure the actual solution is [(1) Qxb4+, Bxb4 (2) Rd2, Qxd2 (3) Nc2+, Qxc2 (4) axb4#] Rook to D2 forces the queen to take as the bishop taking leads to knight C2 checkmate and Rook takes leads to pawn capturing bishop checkmate which are both mate in 3. So that was a really neat force to get the queen off guarding B4

    The most comprehensive treatise on Q sacs is “Queen Sacrifice[s]” by IM Yakov Neishstadt (1991, Pergamon Press, 252pp.) the renowned Soviet Correspondence Player, and chess journalist (editor of USSR periodicals Shakhmaty, “64” etc. ) and was also a prominent soviet event arbiter, awarded the prestigious Soviet title “Judge of the All-Union Category for Chess” now living in Israel he will turn 100 on 6 Oct 2023. I have also read, and highly recommend his other chess tactics treatise “Test Your Tactical Ability” (1991, Batsford 210pp.) a marvelous tour thru all the motifs and themes of chess combinations, from decoys, attractions, demolition, displacement, pins, blockings (as was used in this puzzle), to endgame “swindles” combinations to force stalemate in a lost position! Hundreds of examples, puzzles, and quizzes, and a “tactics final exam” chapter at the end! One cannot improve any faster than by going thru these two volumes!

    One thing Antonio didn't mention is that Rd2 covers the b2 square, preventing white from creating an escape square by playing b3. This is the reason that it is the only move order that works. All the other threats I looked at, white can play b3 and get the king to b2.

  • @jolly_roger2
    @jolly_roger2 Před 3 lety +1

    Found it after trying axb4 first, but b3 after Rd7 was a dead end so I tried the other obvious move when we're talking about crazy puzzles which is Qxb4! And after 30min thinking I found Rd2!! Doesn't matter with which piece you take, it's mate. It took me a while to see that Rxd2 protecting Nc2 mate threat didn't work cause now axb4 is possible (Even though I had already seen Qxd2 didn't work cause Nc2+ and queen is overloaded, mind works in mysterious ways I guess).
    That took forever, especially Rd2, but very happy to find it (gonna check the video in case I'm embarrassing myself with this post).

    I think this puzzle is a demonstration of the technique shown in another video, where the rook protects from the knight mate, while the queen protects from the pawn mate, but when you force the queen to line up with the rook, then she's overloaded, being responsible for defending [but unable to respond to] both threats. Nice one!

  • @user-bh7fd6ic1w
    @user-bh7fd6ic1w Před 3 lety

    There is one more thing I think you missed (but anyway a very interesting video, as always). Rd2 was an ingenious move not only because it messed up the connection between White's queen, bishop and the rook, but also because it would cut off king's escape route. Not accepting the rook by playing b3 and making room on the b2 square for white king doesn't work either.

    That Rd2 reminds me of the "plachutta" by Tarrasch, you block the defense line of two pieces and then sacrifice another piece to double distract the Queen. Beautiful!

    At 4:28 doesn’t rook to e3 also deliver checkmate. If blocked with queen you take with rook and check and if knight takes you deliver checkmate with pawn.
