Combination Challenge #629

 

1. Hell, I’ve not solved this one. Haven’t even looked in the book… yet!

2. Still haven’t actually peeked. But this looks intriguing:

   1. Qxg6 fxg6
   2. Bxe6+ Kh7 or 8
   3. Rfh3+

   On the down side, none of that is forced, not sure if it counts as ‘diversion.’ But it is something stupid that I’d try.

3. I agree with your first move, I saw it as soon as you posted but decided to wait and give someone else a chance to solve this.  Black cannot help but loose material.  I think the diversion is to get the f pawn to give up its square.

4. Probably right Wes. I still haven’t peeked. Mainly because I play stupid moves all the time. I’ll post the actual result tomorrow. Maybe. The Walkers might eat me first.

   I did post a recent chess.com game. I was seriously outrated, but I sacked a rook and won. Only 22 moves! I personally think that my Kc2 move may have one of my best.

5. I saw this, but not sure if it’s a good line.

   g4 X e6 ... g7 X h6
   f3 - h3 ... h6 - g7
   d5 - g5 ... f7 X e6
   e3 - d4 ... ?

6. Oops.

   Should be:

   g4 X e6 ... g7 X h6
   f3 - h3 ... h6 - g7
   d5 - g5 ... f7 X e6
   g5 X g6 ... ?
