solution1... Qxg2 2. Kxg2 Nf4+ 3. Kg1 Nh3#? Nice queen sacrifice

[-] Squizzy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Sorry for the ignorance but I'm not familiar with the shorthand. What is Nf4+ & Nh3#

[-] prayer@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

N = Knight, F4 = square moved to, + = opponent King in check, # = Opponent King in Checkmate

[-] ech@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Wouldn't the bishop just take the knight?

[-] Therefore@aussie.zone 7 points 1 year ago

The king is in check so that isn't an option.

[-] ech@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

I overlooked the black bishop in that play. My mistake!
