Daily chess puzzle: Check Mate # 37

July 5, 2016

Another puzzle from Dragoslav Andric’s 1981 book “Matni Udar”.

Black to play and mate White

371

Zambelly v Maroczy, 1897

 

Solution

 

Not too hard, especially since I have seen the motif- the netting of Black’s King: 1…Rh5+! 2 Kh5[] Qh3+ 3 Kg5[]

372

3…h6+ 4 Kf4 g5+ 5 Ke5[] Qe6 mate.

373

    @ the end f6+ > h6+

    I suspect h6+ is in fact “best”: if f6 then Rf6 prolongs the game.
