So Stockfish was like: "Actually that doesn't work because of this. However, if you do this instead, it does work, so nice puzzle anyway, you just got the wrong solution."

Stockfish out here delivering patch notes to old chess puzzles

[@triptothemoon8171]

Refutations of old puzzles are the best chess videos. Thanks for posting and please make more

[@MintBunHunter]

Imagine if someone refuted these puzzles before stockfish was invented

[@vnXun]

I found Nd7 because you said the move was crazy, I didn't know why Nd7 was good I just knew it was indeed crazy

[@KolejowySzynszyl901]

Stockfish doesn't ruin chess, it finds moves and lines that weren't expected.

[@matthewviramontes3131]

You don't even need Stockfish for this one. There's only 7 pieces on the board, so it's a tablebase position, and the tablebase will tell you right away it's a win for White and tell you every winning move too.

[@rene5939]

Not only Stockfish could find these other solutions. Looking at the 7 pieces Tablebase would have told us the same…….

[@skyblue-ph4gq]

Actually, there are exactly 7 pieces in the board and we can use a tablebase. After Rg7+ Kh8, white has 3 winning moves: Ke7, Rg6, and Ke6.

Nd7 was actually quite intuitive once you mentioned the stalemating idea.

[@David_Crayford]

Beginning to feel sorry for the old masters. Computationally they didn't have the bandwidth to go through all permutations in one lifetime!

[@alex_zetsu]

Normally I'd say "it's a win for the intended side, just not the intended way" is not really ruining a puzzle, but a pawn checkmate is pretty cool...

[@Caladian]

I did intuitively guess the knight to D7, based on what you said previously about taking away the pieces of black would lead to a draw. I didn't see it though of course, just since you asked that was the only move I could think would create a situation based on what you said previously

[@vivaankohli9448]

Thank you so much for the video. That was a really nice solution. I like how Stockfish finds these lines and moves that we didn't notice when originally looking at the puzzle.

[@spartanspeedruns8386]

Really happy that I found Ke7 at the beginning of the video lol. The whole video I was like "but what if you do Ke7 instead?? Pushing the pawn didn't seem best there..." and then you finally went back to that and I was like "yes!!!" haha

Stockfish gives a venomous sting to the puzzle, and stockfish gives the antidote.

[@lucastheg6156]

I actually saw the move stockfish had for the right reason. Im proud of myself

[@ImMataza]

This was very cool its so much fun to see a refutation and new solution

[@toptwitchchannel]

always interesting to see the solutions to a problem

[@msvb2457]

I haven't played chess in 100 years and I was never more than average. But I love this channel! You really do a nice job at presenting these ideas.
