JulesR Dec 2021 11:48am, 18 Dec 2021 27,639 posts	0 JulesR I liked today’s daily puzzle a lot. Maybe because I solved it, but it’s very logical and not too hard to calculate all the way through. Stop that pawn!
Meglet Dec 2021 12:09pm, 18 Dec 2021 22,162 posts	0 Meglet I solved it too! I realised what was needed, though I didn’t think through all the moves in advance I got them all right.
JCB Dec 2021 12:51pm, 18 Dec 2021 2,923 posts	0 JCB I didn’t immediately get the solution. The idea I had was marginally winning though.
jda Dec 2021 12:52pm, 18 Dec 2021 11,472 posts	0 jda I though Rxf5 was good enough but it’s probably drawing.
JCB Dec 2021 12:57pm, 18 Dec 2021 2,925 posts	0 JCB I suppose around 0.34? is more drawing than marginally winning! But imagine the look of surprise after that move in a game!
JulesR Dec 2021 1:41pm, 18 Dec 2021 27,640 posts	0 JulesR That’s the value of always going through the checklist routine of “Are there any checks? Are there why captures? Are there any threats?” every move. Well done Meglet (in a non-patronising way honest)

JulesR Jan 2022 10:09am, 17 Jan 2022 28,152 posts	0 JulesR Me too for yesterday’s Sunday toughie and that’s very rare. We must be getting smarter, what else could it be?!
Meglet Jan 2022 12:38pm, 17 Jan 2022 22,241 posts	0 Meglet I got it too!
rhb Jan 2022 11:25pm, 17 Jan 2022 1,874 posts	0 rhb I didn't solve today though. Should've retired.
