I'm white. Black just moved e7 to e6. I win.

If you think the waiters are rude, you should see the manager.

Best move is actually f5 to f7. From there, black has exactly three legal moves, two of which lead to mate.

Ah, okay. I was in the one-move mindset.

Is the 1 moving the black knight to e7 and blocking your queen on f7?

Wait I feel like I'm missing something.

What happens after

White Queen f7 - f5 check
Black Queen d8 - e7
White Knight e4 - f6 check
Black King d7 - d8


Zan, using the black knight to block still allows white knight to f6 which is mate I think.

I see the Knight and Bishop mates, trying to see if I can force a Queen mate also

From a computational standpoint, Go is far more interesting than chess.

Well. He missed the one move that got him out of the immediate checkmate. How dissapointing. :/

From an actually playing standpoint, Go is far more enjoyable than chess. (imho)

It's measured in 'Courics'. Not Kuroks.
