Yes, It is beautiful! Fritz5.32 and Junior5 do not solve this. (or solve it quickly enough for our taste anyway). I put it on the King engine in TASCBASE2.0 (very simular engine to CM5500-CM6000). It finds the solution in about 2 seconds. Obviously, the De Konig engine has some unique search extensions for mate positons in its root search that allow it to find beautiful mates like this. Remember how quicky it solved the Shirov Mate problem? r1b2r2/3pNpkp/3pn1p1/2pN3P/2PnP3/q3QP2/4BKP1/1R5R w - - 0 1 Solution: 1.Qh6+ Kh6 2.hxg6+ Kg5 3.Rh5+ Kxh5 4.f4+ Qf3 5.Bxf3 (or, 5...Nxf3 6.Nf6+ Kh6 7.Rh1+ Nh2 8.Rxh2+ Kg7 9.Ne8+ Rxe8 10.Rxh7+ Kf6 11.Rxf7#) Kh6 6.Rh1+ Kg7 7.Rxh7# Pretty cool I admit. mrslug - the inkompetent chess software addict!
