Then I am a genius

You're not a genius because somebody tells you that. But when a billion people tell you the same you might start wondering ....wink

Black to move. Win the rook and the game!

The fastest way to win the rook and checkmate the white king is by playing 1. ... Qg1!

Why lose a queen for a rook when you can win the rook for free and promote to mate ?

I don't think you grasp the concept of what makes a chess puzzle. To be a puzzle, the solution either has to be the only winning move vs perfect defence, the only drawing move vs perfect attacking play, or the fastest way to checkmate if the puzzle is titled "mate in (n)". There should not be a situation where I can find a move which wins the game instantly, but it is considered "incorrect", unless the stated objective of the puzzle is to find the fastest checkmate

Why bother with all of the checks when you can just start with Kg7. It's easily winning anyway

Also on move 8, Qh2+ would win the rook, why the other checks first?

Overall, I would give this a 0/10, truly one of the most pointless and inaccurate puzzles I've ever seen.

Every move a check until either mate or winning of pawns and queen.

Mate in 11 actually.

you would actually need to go 3.Nxh2+ 4.Nf3+ then 5.Qc4+, not 3.Qc4+ as 1....Qd5+ 2.Kg1 Nf3+ 3.Kf1 Qc4+ 4.Kg2 Qg4+ 5.Kh1 and there is no checkmate because the h2 pawn blocks the h-file and the queen guards g1 so you would need to go 1....Qd5+ 2.Kg1 Nf3+ 3.Kf1 Nxh2+ 4.Kg1 Nf3+ 5.Kf1 Qc4+ 6.Kg2 Qg4+ as if 7.Kh1 Qh3# due to the removal of the h2 pawn and thus 7.Kf1 Nh2+ ..... 12.Kc3 Qh3+ 13.Kc2 Qd3+ 14.Kc1 Qd2#

Wrong. Your problem is cooked, unfortunately.

6. Nh2+ is the wrong move to play, because 6... Qg4+ 7. Kf1 Qg1+ 8. Ke2 Qf2+ 9. Kd3 e4+ 10. Kxe4 Ng5+ 11. Ke5 Nc6# is faster. Engine analysis proves as such.

Thus. 6. Qd3 is White's best defense, and only prolonging move.

It says Mate in 14 OR win the queen , stop the promotions and win the game !

Sorry for being easy ill make super hard one, its one of the unkown hardest chess puzzles i think
here. enjoy!

Dont forget that Definally accept any friend requests. and also this puzzle at the end you can litterly just press solution cause theyre many moves.

So this I still solved but It was at least pretty satisfying and took a long time.

That cant be possible you are 1000 and 2000 in puzzles, you must have a lot of patience then, i would think yo cant solve it, i stumped with that puzzle 5 people all toguether, and they couldnt solve it

I am 2070 in puzzles or so

Pretty difficult puzzle, Took me a while to get without hints, but easy if you just look for checks

The nature of the puzzle automatically implies that only checks have to be played until the rook is won otherwise the rook would move , change position , be a threat and stir up counterplay against the black position .

adityasaxena4

Find a 22-move forcing sequence winning a rook and the game ! Keep in mind: while a similar position arises to the last puzzle there is a giant difference in move sequence.

There's a 3 move mate in that position.
