I spent so much time trying to figure out the solution, only to check the game to discover that white's actual play was to tank for 30 seconds and then resign.
I straight gave up after staring for 2 mins
That doesn't mean that he should have resigned...
Maybe, but I'm going to assume the GM is better than I am lol. I didn't find a winning line for white after staring at it a lot longer than he did; just amusing that someone posted a puzzle with no solution.
Move the king, then work with the knight and pawns. Hopefully get white queen out and pick off the black bishop to free things up a bit.
I suck at chess though
How do I send this board to lichess stockfish?
Also, someone please tell me the counters for this: White Qe4 check, then White Queen takes the c6 pawn, a few swaps and then white is up on material.
I'm missing something super obvious. (Ultra casual player)
You can use the browser extension for chessvision.ai, which uses the same technology as the Reddit bot. Anyway, this is the Lichess analysis board
After Qe4+, black can defend with f5, and white can't protect the queen and the rook at the same time.
Thanks for the links.
...and thanks for the analysis, I managed to not consider the f file. :P
I’m not very good at Chess, but my guess; white is in check, so the knight has to move down to block?
white is not in check
Maybe I have the symbol for king and queen mixed up. Isn’t the crown with all the extra spikes the king?
