E11: anonymous, England 1962

 

1. I thought I had this solved when it was first posted.  Then I realized the black Q and P were on the third and not the second rank.  Back to the drawing boards.  I have it now.  It starts with:

   1. Q-g5 - BxQ
   2. h4xB+ - K-h5

   I will leave a few moves for someone else.

2. Wes commented while I was signing in. I had this his first two moves followed by

   3. Rh8 threatening Rxh7 mate. If 3 ... Qxh8 4 g4 mate. If 3 ... Qxg3+ 4. KxQ and 5. Rxh7 mate next move.

   Am I close?

3. Oh dear. And I thought this one was difficult. Between the two of you, you got it. Guess I should just post the next one. Sad. I didn’t solve it, I had to peek.
