  1. This is very hard. After three hours running in my PC, Rybka could only find mate in 13.

    1. Yes, this is the kind of position that "burns" those silicon brains. :)

    2. I would begin with 1. Ne6 Kh8 2. Nf8 Kg8 3. Nh7 Kh8, but from here I don't know what to do (and I didn't look at Rybka's lines).

  3. I have done a lot of chess studies in cooperation with Mario. I like the idea of ​​this problem. White can move the knight to a square where it can be captured. But Black cannot capture the white knight because of the stalemate and checkmate.

    1. Thank you for your comment, mr. Krug!

      I have studied a couple of your problems before, and found them very creative.

      It is such an honor to receive a comment of yours on my blog.

  4. Thank you. During the last decades of chess composition I have seen many chess problems and chess studies. At that time I still had the Harold van der Heijden database. It was a matter of course for me that I memorised more than 5000 chess studies by other composers in 2015. I also know my chess studies by heart, but it's much easier because you have to deal intensively with your own compositions. - I initially thought that every chess player had a good or very good chess memory, but I was wrong. When I watch club chess players play chess, I can still remember the games they played months later. And when I ask them after a week what these chess people have played, I was amazed that these chess people have even forgotten the chess games they have played. - So I discovered that I was involuntarily, i.e. not consciously, training my chess memory while composing chess. - That's the beauty of chess: it trains many mental aspects.

    1. I am someone who cannot remember my own games the following week, mr. Krug. If you can memorise that many studies, you certainly have a prodigious chess memory. I wish I could. hahaha!

      Thank you again for your comments. It is a huge honor for me. :)
