Another brilliant chess puzzle where White wins by going for an under-promotion to a Knight thus forcing Black to repeat his idea! In the end White is announcing a checkmate with a pawn! A beautiful start and a marvelous finish!

Rb8+
Hi Suren, nice double puzzle!
But in the first, you missed an important line -maybe you thougth that is obvious -, after e8N if black plays d4, white can play Ke4 and the Nd6# unstobbable, this is similar idea with the final checkmate.
Amazing. Just amazing
Nice mate!
Rd8+ Kxd8 ,Qxe4
Well, knight promotion was pretty easy to see, but I didn’t calculate that last line…
Thank You, Suren!
Suren, I managed to find the solution in 2 mins

If you write to me, i can send you the position.
My pleasure to see my puzzel in your videos.
Solution to the puzzle:
1) Rd8+
If: Ke7
Then: 2) Qxe4+ Kxd8
And after Nf3 and placing the Queen and Bc4 is just simply crushing…
If: Kxd8
Then: 2) Qxe4
And white is queen up and can easily wrap up the game
When I took only a look at the thumbnail and gazed at it, I quickly found under promotion to a Knight (not because of picture of Knight piece on side).
I thought if e8=Q then there would not be any immediate check and if e8=N and d1=Q then Nd6+ Kd4 Nf5+ Kc4 Ne3+ royal fork and White is winning clearly. So Black should also underpromote to a knight in order not to simply allow Ne3 fork although I really thought that White can still do so to engulf Black within few squares and make a position where Black would be forced to play a move (forgot that it is called zugzwang). I even found rest of moves:
After Kxe3:
If d4+: Then Ke4 b3 (If d3 then exd3#) a3 b4 a4 d3 (forced) exd3#
If b3: a3 b4 a4 d4+(forced) Ke4 d3 (forced) exd3#
Hi suren
Rd8, Kxd8 and Qxe4
Solution of the last puzzle: 1. Rd8+!! Kxd8 (black is forced to capture this rook, because after 1. … Ke7 knight is still pinned) 2. Qxe4 and now black can't capture white's queen because their knight is pinned, and due to material advantage white is winning in the long range.
Suren, is this a good game to you? 😊
