Nice puzzle

A nice way to end the evening at 4.30am LOL. I actually saw the first move immediately, BUT I had trouble on move # 7.

The first few moves of this puzzle are brilliant. What a clever way to pass a pawn!

I saw the first 4 moves instantly and then after some thinking because of stalemate posssibilities I figured out if i don't attack pawn and the pawn i promoted to queen keeps king doing anything and it was straight forward just position king for mate with queen.

very nice, been a while since I had this musch fun with a chess puzzle.

shocked at 30% solve rate. was a lot easier than I thought.

Couldn't find it

I could not solve this to save my life! I guess I ruled out the queen sac too quickly (b/c I didn't see the pawn check in between) I'm part of the 70% haha. Great puzzle.

I liked the today's and yesterday's easy puzzles

Some food for thought, finally

Typical GK easy puzzle

Starts with a Q sac.

(Very much joking here. Wonderful puzzle.)

Both kingdawar's puzzles have exactly the same solution, yet his older puzzle has twice the solve rate.
