minus-squarejaybone@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down1·edit-22 months agoBlack to move. Bishop takes knight. Checkmate. What am I missing here? E: oh it was white to move. The triple fork doesn’t matter. White should move the rook across to below the bishop.
minus-squarejaybone@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months agoSorry I don’t get the UI. Did white just move the knight? Or is it whites move?
minus-squaretakenaps@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·2 months agoWhite just moved the knight, black to play
minus-squarejaybone@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months 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-22 months agoIt’s not mate in one, it’s mate in two. White can block the bishop with the D pawn. Kc5+ - Bxc5+ d4 - Bxd4#
minus-squarejaybone@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months agoOh yes, of course. You are right. The pawn buys one extra move.

Bishop takes d4?
So mate in two. Not in one.
