Right moves for the solution to the hard chess puzzle 0065
Based on the objective of the puzzle, you have to make the right moves. Following are the right moves
- Re8+, Qxh7#
Explanation for the moves
- Re8+ - This sacrifice of the rook is to distract or deflect the opponent’s knight which is guarding h7. This also opens the diagonal for your queen
- Qxh7# - Since the protection from the knight to h7 is removed, queen captures the pawn and checkmate. King can not capture your queen since it is in battery formation with the rook. This is how you can mate in two moves
- Nxe8 - This is one of the two legal moves available. This is a zugzwang move. With this movement, knight lost its support to h7
- Ng8 - Knight is protecting the king. However, it lost its support to h7. This is a zugzwang move
- For right move - You have sacrificed to have a checkmate. You did it correctly
- For wrong move - You could have had a checkmate after the sacrifice of your rook. Try again
