Posting a tactical position from a recent match of mine on FICS. I am planning on posting these types of videos when I get interesting positions from my matches. It's black to move - see if you can find the mate before I go over the answer!
i'm sure someone has mentioned this but: you could have taken pawn with queen. rook takes queen. promote pawn to queen check. white blocks with knight. queen takes knight. checkmate.
man this is baby stuff... i could have played this while blindfolded!!!! and I'm not joking! it's just the logical outcome of the exchange, no tricks or tatics here!
If you guys are wondering. Why he didn't see the fastest checkmate. It's simply because he didn't need to look any further. First thing that came to mind was. Oh. i take the knight and he's done. So he simply did it... Also. In tournament. *eat* is much more common then i *captured* ... (well everywhere) actually... (also im a 1950) i saw queen take first..
took me 30 secs.....and I'm not even good...

Yeah, adding to the Rb1+ ideas:
If 1...Nxb1 2.c1=Q #
If 1...Rxb1 2.cxb1=Q+ Nxb1 Qe1 #
A LOT of winning variations here.
