minus-squarejaybone@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·5 days agoWell yeah, that’s mate in one. I’m wondering why white would move the knight like that for the triple fork. I was thinking white would move the rook. Still white is in bad shape here.
minus-squareitslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-25 days agoIt’s not mate in one, it’s mate in two. White can block the bishop with the D pawn. Kc5+ - Bxc5+ d4 - Bxd4#
