White to move. How should white proceed?
1. Qxg3+ Kg5 (if 1… Kxg3, 2. Rxg4#)
2. Qxg4+ Kxf6
3. Qh4+ Kg7 (or Kg6)
4. Rg4+ Kh7
5. Qxd8 Qxc5+
6. Kh2 Qe5+
7. Rg3
one of the reasons for Rg4+
black is out of check, and faces mate on g8. so
7 …. Qh8
8. Qd3+
1-0
or 5…. Ra1+
6. Kh2
there is no defense against 7. Qg8#
Nught be wrong but try
QXG3 KXQ
RG4 mate. Hooray I dio one!!!!!
Qxg3+, if Kxg3 white wins with Rxg4+ if Kh5, Qxg4+ and wins
1. Qxg3 kxg3
2. Rxg4#,
or 1… Kh5 2. Qxg4#
A beautiful mate.
1. Qxg3+! Kxg3
(1…. if the black king moves anywhere else Qxg4++)
2. Rxg4++
1. Qxg3+! Kxg3
2. Rxg4#
1. Qxg3+ Kxg3 2. Rxg4#
1.Qxg3+ and it’s over
1. Qg3:+ Kg5 (or … Kg3: Rg4++)
2. Qf4 (to preserve the f6 cutie)
2. … K somewhere
3. Qg4: splat.
Something like this, anyway.
Qxg3
Qxg3+!
1Qxr wins
1.QxR+ KxQ
2.Rxp++
if:
1.— Kh5
2.Qxp mate
Qxg3+
If Kxg3,Rxg4#
If Kh5,Qxg4#
If Kg5,Qe5+,Kg6 (Kh4,Rxg4#),Rxg4+,Kh7,Rg7,Kh7,Qe8#
The rook at g3 is an easy prey
1.Qxg3+ Kg5 (taking the Queen loses to Rxg4#)
2.Qe5+ Kg6 (other checks by Queen such as at g4, f4 give more space to the Black King, Kh4 loses to Rxg4#)
3.Rxg4+ Kh7
4.Qe4+ Kh8
5.Qe8+ Kh7
6.Rg7#
1.Qxg3! wins for white.
