hello,
just bought a great book called "award-winning chess problems" by burt hochberg. after getting stumped on the very first problem I looked at the solution in the back but think the solution may be to another problem. The black moves don't seem to match the given pieces. I might be misreading the shorthand.
I don't know how this works but I tried to put the puzzle in the above FEN diagram. if that doesn't work the problem is called:"V. Diaconu, Der Waarheid 1967" There's supposed to be exactly one key to white mating in two moves. Anyone know the solution?

Thanks

OK, thanks brokenwall. Just me knowing that the flip board doesn't work, and the original post had something about the moves not matching the pieces.

Do you have any more puzzles, other than those from GameKnot? The last few have been quite challenging, which is what I prefer.

If you haven't seen this oldie from my first post ever on Chessforums.org...it is still a cool "mate in 2" in my opinion-
Headache time- White to move & mate in two

Ughh, headache time indeed!

Well, I could always post a few of Nunn's collection of puzzles from Chessmaster, but they're probably not as challenging as these are.
