minus-squareMousepad@burggit.moeOPMlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·11 months agoThanks! spoiler I got this one wrong, actually. I tried Qf2+ Kh1 Qf1+ Kh2 Qf4+ g3 Qf3+ Qg2 (with the idea that if Kh1 instead, Qf1 then Rf2 being mate, but my rook is pinned! Whoops!) Qxg2 Kxg2 Rxe7 Which would have been a better position than the final (correct) position in the puzzle. Turns out that it is hard to move pinned pieces!
