White to play and mate in 12. Sometimes thinking 12 moves ahead in chess is not as hard as it seems!
Solution
This chess puzzle is relatively straightforward, because there is really just one viable move each turn:
- Rf2+ Ke3
- Rf3+ Ke4
- Re3+ Kd4
- Re4+ Kd5
- Rd4+ Kc5
- Rd5+ Kc6
- Rc5+ Kb6
- Rc6+ Kb7
- Rb6+ Ka7
- Rb7+ Ka8
- If 10 … Ka6, then 11. Ra7#
- Ra7+ Kb8
- Ra8#
Please give me more examples of mate in 12.
