I have never seen another puzzle like this one. It's absolutely fascinating. No one annotates these puzzles better than Nelson.
there is a video of his which covers a 130 move study that forcibly ends in checkmate.
I solved the puzzle in 2 minutes
@@EdinoRemerido yeah sure you did buddy
@@EdinoRemerido What took you so long?
@@Hallands. GOD DAMN IT
What's even crazier to me is that Stockfish instantly saw that whole sequence of mate in 24
more like mate in 18
@@condor07usano, that is mate in 24
of course ... other moves for white lead to obviously lost positions so it quickly finds the ones that don't

fascinating puzzle! all of the moves are so intuitive, yet they create quite the interesting combination :D
More or less my idea. It is quite possible that I would have found every individual move over the board in that given position - not being sure whether it would win the game.
One of the most beautiful and instructive puzzle i've ever seen! Indispensable and subtle chess principles as sustaining tempo, move sequences and maneuvering, and zugzwang were all demonstrated. Loved this.
The sustaining of tempo was unnecessary after the pawn promoted to a queen. The game is ended in white's favor in fewer moves by Qf8, followed by Qg7 mate, no matter what black does.
Edit: I was wrong. Qf8 leaves black with Qa1 ch.
Absolutely brilliant. Shows the endless possibilities of Chess moves, the power of the Queen, and finding the way to win!
Love the geometry of the queen moves. I was surprised how far I could calculate this without seeing the position.
1. Re7+ Kf8 2. d7 Kg8 3. Re8+ Kh7 4. Rxd8 d1=Q 5. Rh8+ Kxh8 6. d8=Q+ Kh7 7. Qc7+ Kh6 8. Qxf4+ Kh7 9. Qh2+ Kg8 10. Qb8+ Kh7 11. Qxa7+ Kh6 12. Qxe3+ Kh7 13. Qh3+ Kg8 14. Qc8+ Kh7
Here I decided to set the position on the board to calculate from that because I wasn't too sure where the next couple of moves were leading. That was very helpful.
15. Qd7+ Kh6 16. Qh3+ Qh5 17. Qe3+ g5 18. Qxd3 (queen has to guard g6 square so there are only two moves - g4 and Qe8) g4 19. Qe3+ Kh7 20. Qe7+ Kh6/Kh8/Kg8 21. Qg7#
18. ... Qe8 19. Qh3+ Qh5 20. Qf5 (threatening Qxg5+ -> Qg7# and Qg6# so black's queen is paralysed) g4 21. Qf4+ Kh7 22. Qc7+ Kh6/Kh8/Kg8 23. Qg7#
Gotta say I had a chess orgasm after solving this. As I said before, the geometry of the queen moves is truly fascinating.
@@user-in3me1hm7b nah, it might look intimidating but in reality all the moves are kinda forced and repetitive so it is easier to follow than the shorter puzzle but with more sublines. At least for me that's how it is.
@@user-in3me1hm7b all of what he said is nonsense. Just typing out the moves. Don't lose yourself in that
U had a chess orgasm? What
Okay nerd
How long did it take u to write all of these?
i would literally ragequit chess if this happened to me
like usually you'd think the queen checks would end after a while
but they dont
and then u realise that the queen is taking all your pawns and piece slowly, with check
and when u think it might be a draw
it becomes a checkmate
At 3:20 I was convinced that the next move for White was to move Queen to F8, but then I saw that Black can just move Queen to A1 to Check.
Oh. Duh (me, not you).
Okay
Judging from the opening position, the key for white was a series of forcing moves. And what's more forcing than a check? QED
Perfectly shows the power of the queen and the importance of tempo.
Outstanding presentation! Videos like this should be used to spread the word about problem chess!
Your chess videos are immensely superior. You explain it well, and illustrate it well. I learn something every time.
Thanks for all these wonderful puzzles and explaining them so clearly.
Excellent demo. Very instructive. Congratulations
I immediately saw the first move and the next few logical continuations, but I had absolutely no idea of the subsequent complications. Very nice!
I had no idea what the moves were supposed to be, but I did know one thing: don't stop checking. Check every move, no matter what.
Puzzles like this make me wonder how many times people have resigned seemingly obviously “lost” positions when in reality they had a forced win.
Watching these puzzles is helping. I actually came up with the correct moves this time.
Superb video! thanks for so nice content and best of luck for your new year
Thank you so much for so instructive moves on that puzzle :) Stay sharp, play smart ! Luvit !
Amazing puzzle, easy to follow and understand yet still complex and full of small details
Incredible position! Black had so many pieces and was forced to lose all of them. Crazy! Amazing video as always Nelson!
Apart from the pawn-clearing, I recognized this pattern from the outset. The first 3 moves were literally my first try and it took me a moment to work out the specific tactics at 2 of the checkpoints.
A queen out of position is no queen at all. A very instructive video on how powerful the King is in a mating attack in the endgame.
Amazing puzzle! Thanks for this great explanation.

Keep posting this kind of puzzles
Awesome!!! That’s bud. I really enjoy learning from you.
Superb puzzle & analysis.
Excellent !
i’m so proud of myself, i actually saw almost all the moves as nelson explained it
Love this timing!
Nice show! I hope your channel will remain longer without another interruption.
Fascinating. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good stuff, Nelson!
Wow, like 9 mini puzzles in one position. Amazing composition. I love how your channel has unusual puzzles like this.
Okay
This is like a reverse psychology puzzle. I feel like the super obvious moves are never right in higher level puzzles but that was the case a few times here
Reverse is the key. I suspect the puzzle is indeed designed with the ending first, and then rolled up with forced move after forced move, and putting down black pieces in the path of destruction as you go.
Was nice, thank you!
BEAUTIFUL!!
Indeed ,i saw many puzzles,but this one looks like a match's middle game,truely magnifisant.
At 5:00 , Qc7 is a faster mate I guess because although we give black a free move, nothing it can do will prevent a mate in 1. Am I missing something?
Black responds with stuff like Qa1+ or Qf1+, and begins to perpetually check white, or even mate.
Very cool study!
Mindblowing is the correct expression, thanks a lot for this wonderful puzzle
Really nice and educational
I don't know if someone will believe me but I am very glad to say that I managed to see each move of this fabulous puzzle. I exercise pretty often by doing chess puzzles but this is by far the greatest that I've ever solved.
Great job. I couldn’t tell I was going to win until the last 5 moves. But I was able to pause and figure out each move he did.
@@ecospider5 That's good. The most difficult it seemed to me to realize the plan and the moment with the queen moving it to the lighted squares.
As a 900, I am proud to say that I found the first half of the moves
so this is how you win a level 12 computer since they do not make mistakes like humans and play the best possible moves. I'll keep watching these videos to beat it. Thanks a lot
I think I learned more about end game positioning in this one video than all the other resources I've seen. Of course there are endgames with no queens and just knights and pawns. But it's these sort repeated check opportunities that demonstrate how you can hang on without feeling compelled to resign.
Really cool puzzle, beginning was easy but that final trick with repositioning queen escaped me
ABC: always be checking!
Excellent
I improvised the win, but was surprised it took so long.
Nelson,thank you for sharing this gorgeous puzzle.
The greatest chess puzzle I've ever seen in my life.
Brilliant.
I saw a simpler solution with king g7 and let black promote since you can check mate with rook E7. Basically cut off the king. The king can’t move and if black moves the knight moves to check the king simply move the king to g8 which avoids the knight while keeping the pin on the king. Then when they promote since they don’t really have any other option, check mate with the rook since it’s protected and the king can’t enter the squares next to your king. The pawn promotion does nothing since it’s blocked my tbe bishop and by the time it moves to defend it’s too late
'king g7'
Kg7 Kxd7
White is left with no rook, no way to defend their pawn, against a table full of black pieces, with a pawn ready to promote.
'The king can’t move'
The king can take white rook.
@@williammayson5270
The pawn does not protect the rook. Pawns do not protect what is right in front of them on the same file.
@@thetaomegatheta I see. I was assuming black would promote its pawn rather than take the rook.
Great puzzle!
wow, more than imagined at the beginning!!
5:44 What if Black under promoted to a knight?
Black loses the ability to immediately start putting white in check, giving white a lot more freedom to do stuff.
That's a good question to ask. But the answer is very simple. If it's a knight, then it's no longer a queen, so instead of going to c7, the white queen goes to d7 and delivers mate on h3, because there is no queen to block it
Beautiful moves.
When I first saw this, I got the first couple of moves pretty quickly and realised a rook sac might be necessary to allow a white queen to arrive. I thought that White's ability to threaten mate might mean that black wouldn't even have time to promote his pawn, but it turns out that black can make a queen, but white will still win because his own new queen can get active immediately. Tempo is so important. It pans out a bit differently if it is black to play at the start.
At 10:20, ...Qf7+ forced White to take. It's still a mate, but because the mate is not 1 move later, it's the only "tactic" left for Black to pull off a stalemate if White isn't exacting. It's again mate, but it's worth noting how this final stab Black takes heightens the level of how exacting White must be all the more so, up to this last ditch effort.
Black has a pawn. No stalemate.
Incredible
Always love the queen puzzles!
Awesome puzzle
Brilliant
Wonderful
that was amazing!
Beautiful 💙
Awesome video
I saw all these steps in the beginning during the short pauze. Easy puzzle.
So this demonstrates the concepts of king safety and tempo
Mind boggling moves !
Excelente. Baile de Reinas, con una Reina más lista y más astuta que la otra.
So mindblowing
Jesus. That was a long explanation. Glad you’ve explained it the whole way!
He sacrifices... THE ROOOOK
Amazing windmill queen tactic checkmate
What if the black pawn at d1 turns into knight instead of queen, protecting e3 pawn?
An even faster win for white.
Truly thrilling and Mesmerising
The nice sample of the meaning of Tempo and using bad position of the black king .
Nelson, I know you did a video on how to destroy a fianchetto, but is it possible to make a video on how to fianchetto effectively and use it as an attacking and a defensive weapon?
Nice!
Q: Do you wrestle with these until you solve them, before you present them to us?
Wow that was beautiful!
got it, simple and elegant
What a beautiful windmill combination.
On the 2nd puzzle you should have went down to the white square because from there there is a checkmate in 3 or 4
Learning to get check 20 moves in a row really helps win a game like this. If you give them a singe move you will probably loose.
* lose
Amazing video
5:00 - I would have guessed to go Qa1 to check, but I see the king can "escape" to h8, but that does leave open going BACK to h2 for a check to force the same position. So if I was playing this, I would have played Qa1 just in the hopes of a mismove of the king to f8. :P
The only queen that can get to a1 from that position is the black one, but it's white to move, and Qb8 is a check that forces Kh7. There is no opportunity for black queen to go a1.
If you want to go a1 with the white queen at some point shortly after, black just takes with their queen and white loses.
I thought there was a simpler position for checkmate in 6 white moves from the initial position, diverging at 2:09, but that's because I didn't see that black's bishop was there to prevent that exact ending. At least I'm getting better about seeing paths and solutions!
It looks like start of the video white can play two moves for checkmate
At 2:16 Black should NOT promote the pawn to queen, but move the bishop back to attack that White pawn down near the end! There's no way for White to protect the pawn. In that position, it would seem that Black would win if it could (after Sacrificing the bishop and taking the white pawn) promote a pawn to a queen.
No, get the queen was blacks best move.
1. Re7+ Kf8 2. d7 Kg8 3. Re8+ Kh7 4. Rxd8 Bb5 5. Rh8+ Kxh8 6. d8=Q+ Kh7 (6... Be8 7. Qxe8+ Kh7 8. Qxg6+ Kh8 9. Qg7#) 7. Qf8 e2 8. Qg7#
It's an unbelievable win!
You could subtitle this one "whipped between pillar and post"
That would be so unsatisfyingly if all those moves lead to stalemate
Amazingly, Brilliantly Genius!!!
What happens if black goes g5 instead of queening? The f pawn is now protected and the white king blocks its own queen from attacking the g pawn if the same strategy is applied.
Il y aurait mat en quatre coups : Th8+ Rxh8 d8=D+ Rh7 Dd7+ suivi du mat en g7 ou h3. Bien à vous
It would be cool to have such a position in a game.
Nelson, this kind of chess studies surpass any imagination. Thank you.
Fantastic, very beautiful.
