Re: Progressive chess problem



"There are at least four "different" wins:

7. Kd2 h4 Rh3 Rc3 Rxc8#
7. Kd2 Be2 Nf3 Rc1 Rxc8#
7. Kd2 h4 Rh3 Rf3 Rxf7 Bd6 Rf8#
7. Kd2 a4 a5 a6 axb7 bxc8R# "

Thanks. The consensus seems to be that 2. c5 cxd4 is black's best
response to white's 1. d4, but it seems like 3. e4 e5 Bd2 and taking
the black queen and bishop on 5 while leaving the white bishop on f8
allows white to win no matter what black does.

1. d4
2. c5 cxd4
3. e4 e5 Bd2
4. e6 d3 dxc2 cxd1Q+
5. Kxd1 Ba5 Bxd8 Be7 Bxf8

If black plays 6. h5 h4 h3 hxg2 gxh1Q Kxf8, white can mate with 7. Nc3
Nd5 a4 Ra3 Rc3 Rxc8#
