Solution, and the winners.
is the winner of this round, congrats!
found the correct solution, too, but was not quite as fast as
. Congrats as well.
Today's quiz was not the most difficult one, but I have to say I liked it from an aesthetical point of view (I really wanted to create a problem which included the stalemate topic).
With the best play from both sites the game ends in a draw (stalemate).
Here is the solution now:
2. d7 Rg8 (after 2. ... Rd8 3. Qc7 wins for white)
3. d8Q!
Black has two options now:
a)
3. ... Qxf4
4. Qxf6+! Qxf6 stalemate.
b)
3. ... Rxd8
4. Qxf6+ Qxf6 stalemate again!
