Improve Your Chess with the Right Chess Moves:

Calculate Forced Moves First

Example 3

1.e4 e5 2.d4 f6?
This weakens Black's kingside. He should simply play

2...exd4 3.dxe5 fxe5?
It would be better for Black to give up a pawn and develop his pieces after 3...Nc6 4.exf6 Nxf6

4.Qh5+ Ke7

4...g6 5.Qxe5+ and 6.Qxh8 wins the rook

5.Qxe5+ Kf7 6.Bc4+
Brings out another piece while attacking the enemy king

6...d5
6...Kg6 7.Qf5 mate

7.Bxd5+ Kg6
Now it is forced mate in 5 moves. If Black wants to prevent mate in 5, he would have to give up his queen right here with 7...Qxd5 8.Qxd5+

8.Qg3+ Kh5
8...Kf6 9.Qg5 mate

9.Bf7+ g6 10.Qe5+
Always check, it might be mate

10...Bf5
10...Kh4 11.Nf3+ Kg4 12.h3 mate; 10...Kg4 11.f3+ Kh4 12.g3 mate

11.Qxf5!
The pawn cannot take the queen after 11...gxf5 because White's bishop on f7 prevents Black moving into check

11...Qg5 12.Qxg5 mate
