![]() For example "queen sacrifices" ok we know what to instantly look for there. ![]() I think one of the reasons the checkmate book is easier are the chapter headings help more. For example problem 52 where he gives a line in which Black loses their queen resulting in a nearly 6 point advantage for White, while the best move would keep the queen and give less than a 2 point advantage for White and in that line it's much more difficult for White to find the moves that keep the advantage too. I've found some other errors too but so far they're solution errors, where you're still winning with the move he gives but he doesn't cover the best move from the opponent. The next day I put it in an engine and it said after Bxf7 Black would even be a tiny bit better with Nxf7 and not Rxf7 which would be a blunder. So I look at all these other moves "what could it be, what could it be?" I see nothing conclusive so I finally turn to the back and lo and behold he gives Bxf7 as the winning move with the line Rxf7, not even bothering with Nxf7. I pretty soon discounted Bxf7 because I didn't see why Black couldn't give up the queen for a rook and bishop with Nxf7, already being three pawns ahead with a three to one majority on the queenside I might add. I spent nearly an hour a few nights ago lying in bed looking at this thing.
