Hi #chess! First time here on chess tag. Got a puzzle for ya!

in #chess • 8 years ago

So I have been on Steemit for some time and only just now an idea came to me:

"Why not try to meet other chess players here?"

I've been part of poker community here on Steemit. I'm participating in #spl league and I think there are great people participating in this project. Some better some worse, ofc :D.

So Hi all the Steemian chess players!

I will leave you with a puzzle for now:

Black top / White bottom: White to move, mate in 4 moves.

Hope someone can solve it! Leave the answer in comment. Cheers!

    I really like this. It would be also enjoyable if you find enough people with skill enough to have challenges and contests to pay out the one who solves it! I am not as skilled as many, but I am familiar with THE BOOK....however, not familiar enough to compete!
