Chess

Here is somewhat famous and interesting puzzle.

White to play and win

Crypto researcher and developer 👨‍💻

Mostly lurking in the background, struggling to follow what is happening and missing all airdrops in the process 🤷‍♂️

That’s a tough one; I’m not seeing a 3-move win. 🤔

Systems engineer, budding crypto enthusiast, 10K/half-marathon runner 🏃🏾

Here is big hint: every black move is completely forced

Yeah, that's stalemate. But it's in the right direction. Think a bit more.

If you want, I can give you solution. Or you can find it in a reply from somebody else (it is already solved).

Well, I see something but it’s not a win, it’s a stalemate.

1) White pawn to promote on A8.

Black pawn forced to F2.

2) White King moved to E2.

Black pawn forced to promote.

3) White King takes promoted pawn.

Game ends in a stalemate because Black can’t move.
