Level: hard!
ResponderExcluirHint: the Black King, Queen and Bishop are in the same line as the White Rook.
ExcluirThis means that if the Queen moves, the Bishop will become pinned; and if the Bishop moves, the Queen will become pinned.
(In other words, Queen and Bishop are half-pinned.)
ExcluirThere is an astonishing number of "half-pins" in this problem!
ExcluirThat is exactly the goal of the author: he claims that this problem holds the world record of most half-pins in a chess problem. :)
ExcluirHow many half-pins are there in this problem?
ExcluirAccording to the author, the solution explores 15 half-pins.
ExcluirAccording to this source ( https://www.chessproblem.net/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=672 ):
Excluir"For over 80 years the world record for half-pins was 11. The man who finally broke the record, Robert Clyde Moore, worked on-and-off on the task for 30 years before he was successful. The new record of 15 half-pins was formerly thought to be impossible."
"Two units are said to be half-pinned [against the King] when one of them becomes completely pinned when the other moves." - this is how John Rice defines a half-pin in his "Chess Wizardry: The New ABC of Chess Problems".
ResponderExcluirIn other words: when two chess pieces are half-pinned against the King, and one of them moves, the other becomes fully pinned – this is the "half-pin" theme in chess problems.
This problem currently holds the world record of half-pins, with 15 in total, all involving the Black Queen and Bishop.
