As a beginner 600ELO player i want to play your b3 openning as white and as black also. If you learn us b3 as black that would be so happier☺️..
And also you can make one of my favorite *Dutch Stonewall defence* thank you Sir☺️
On the second puzzle I wish you would've explored some other lines since KxF8 isn't forced. I played around with Black responding to NF8 with KE8 instead of capturing the Knight, and I think that actually makes for another, perhaps even more interesting line!
Ne5 you could have gotten the check without giving up the knight
My new favorite chess channel!
Was always looking for Smirnov chess content since I came across 'To take is a mistake video like 10 yrs ago.
Third one is a gem. Thank you so much for sharing
Hi Igor I smiled when I solved all three of the puzzles! I am very interested in your ideas against the London system. All the best from Athens, George
Thank you very much for the puzzles. I’m new at chess and it took me about 1 hour to figure out all the puzzles by moving them not in my brain. I have a very protective personality but you made me realize that in this game you have to give a little to to gain more hopefully.
Please do MORE like this! Short, instructive, and fun.
Hey! Thanks. We will.
Wow, existing puzzle brilliant method 😍
nice puzzles ! took some time to solve first two. 3rd one didn't clicked me. thanks.
Rg1 works in the third as well , i saw that first … similar to first puzzle method
Great...Very diabolical solution 😈💪
I got the last one right off...but it's been years since I've played. But still enjoy your channel!
Solved the 1st and 3rd quite easily but in the 2nd puzzle, if we play Nc5+, then if black plays Kg6, then Ne5 by white after which if black plays Rb8, then Nf4 is a mate. If black plays Re8, then Rg7 is checkmate and if black plays Rh7, Nf4 is again a checkmate! Am I right Igor?
Alright, right off the bat, without watching further with puzzle 1...
First off, you can't actually stop the black pawn from promoting. However, that's not a problem, because the solution actually wants the black pawn to promote at a specific time.
1. Rb5. This basically gives the rook to Black with ...Kxb5, however it also prevents ...Kxb6 and forces the king out of position, as while Kxb5 isn't forced (I know you called it forced, but I guarantee that some lower-ELO players would do literally anything else at this point and blunder the game), it is the ONLY move that Black can make without losing their pawn. Honestly, I'd argue that Rb5 is actually Rb5!!, as it is a huge material sacrifice that in turn single-handedly wins the game.
2. b7. At this point, it's a race to promote, and one white can't win. But white doesn't _have_ to win it. Black follows up with ...b1=Q. Promotion was inevitable here, but there's a big problem with Black's position here, which I'll explain with the next step.
3. b8=Q or b8=R. Either of these works for the purposes of the puzzle. Because the Black king was lured onto the b file two turns ago, this skewers (I know you called it an "X-Ray attack", but honestly I've always just known this as a skewer) the Black king and newly promoted queen, forcing Black to move their king off the b file and allowing White to take on the next turn. No matter what Black does at this point, they've pretty much lost. They might luck out and White might blunder stalemate, but that probably won't happen unless this is a low-ELO game.
Apparently I got it. Honestly, if I saw this puzzle just a couple months ago I probably would have been stumped.
I have a question on the 1st puzzle. WHY can't the King just follow white pawn.. then capture when promoted? You have the black pawn promote.. but, black pawn is not in danger and doesn't need to waste a move by promoting right then.
As a Master, YOU have made this channel VERY desirable for those of us who seek training. One way.. because of your willingness to 'listen' and respond to serious questions. Thank you.
I was able to solve the first Two... I like the third one it's a great idea
In the second puzzle the black has no moral obligations to take the knight.
Think twice.
For your 2nd game why not kc6? It seems there are 4 black options.
1. Move rook pawn whereby the sequence of kn-d5! Forces either kb8 with white kb6. Or kc8 with white fork. Or kd8 where black rook is lost with white rook check.
2 Moving the rook to any white square the white knight gets it with a discovered check.
3. Moving kd7 loses with ktd5! with rook lost on a knight fork or if king goes to 8th row lost with a rook check.
4. Lastly rook moves on a black square where re8 seams the only possible out where it's foiled with knxp! Kb8 followed by white king to b6 and mate follows.
Excuse my poor annotation skills. Did I miss something in my analysis?
Because knight can not move to c6. Knight piece move that way: it moves 2 horizontally and 1 vertically. it can not move 1 horizontal and 1 vertical chess tile. That's why it's impossible to move knight to c6.
Hey Igor, love your channel and your lessons, but what's the deal with the red bunny?
Hi ,I manage to solve no 1 and 3 in few seconds , however for number 2 it took 1 minute but through another way than your beautiful solution 1. K f5 - k e7 2. Ne5+(double)- kd6 3. Nf7+ and take the rook. What do you think? please answer me
I couldn´t solve any, but it was very instructive.
I have had that first one in games before left going what do I do
I was able to solve #1 and #3 relatively fast, but #2 got me
100%💪
Got problem 1 and 3 correct. But didn't get 2 correct as I thought Kf5 as next move. Where if black goes to ... Ke7, then white Ne5+ with idea of forking King and rook. If black rook moves or if K goes to back row, then a whole host of white moves are possible, including Nxf6 or other ideas you discussed.
You're exactly right about Kf5 on the second puzzle. That's the correct answer because Igor's move would have allowed black to force a stalemate.
1.Tb5
2/3
I solved the third one instantly, the first one after a bit of thought, but couldn't do the second one.
I got the last one straight away.
In the second puzzle, why wouldn't white play king to f5, and then kill the black pawn with the knight, also revealing a check, and since white has their king on f5, black cannot kill the knight, or move downwards, so they are then forced to move up, and they can't move their king to protect the black rook because of white's knight.
Rb1,king take,b7,b1=Q,b8"Q Q into Qb8 white win 1ans
Solved 1 and 3, missed 2. I saw Nf8+ but thought there wasn't anything there, just missed the follow up.
2.Kf5
