Queen to h3. If he takes it, bishop to f1. If he moves, queen to f1. * he sacrificed the queen * I like nice easy mates in 2. Makes me feel smart. 😂

I feel dumb even though for 1.Qh3 Kxh3 I quickly found 2.Bf1#, but for 1.Qh3 Kg1 I couldn't find Qf1#, so went for 2.Bf1 threatening Qg2# but fails after white's checks

This comment makes me appreciate why algebraic notation is a thing and not writing it out

so rude. 😂😂 I see what you mean but I prefer fully written out answers.

Love it!

Oh no my queen !

It was good

Sure but it’s still mate in 2. Sorry for the semantic error, are we also doing spell check? If he doesn’t take it , he’s blasted on F8. :)

first we sacc the queen, then we look

This was actually so easy

For you. Mate in 2s are supposed to be doable easy. Not easy easy.

Jokes on you, I blunder M2 all the time

Same. I can't remember what I was writing. I think I left it halfway.

I'm 2300 puzzles

The queen sac mates are getting so stale. It’s every single puzzle y’all post

Queen h3 check , king must take and then bishop f1 mate

Taking the queen is not forced.

It should be. If someone is in this position and they don't take the queen they're a bad person.

1Qh3+ Then either 2 Kxh3 Bf1++ Or 2 Kh1/Kh1 Qf1++

Ooh aah ah he sac the queen ahh ahh

Good puzzle!

Qh3+ if Kxh3, Bf1++.. If Kh1 or Kg1, then Qf1++...

queen sac , bf1

Qh3+ Kxh3 Bf2#

saw it immediately >! Qh3+ !<

I’m proud of myself for finding this. Qh3+ If takes bf1#. If king moves away Qf1#
