GIPF: Puzzle #17
Don’t mind loosing a piece…
White to move. Which move secures a win on the second move?
White is in turn - and in big trouble.
Sometimes, after having captured a few of the opponent’s pieces, it happens that you loose your position completely: plenty of pieces in reserve, hardly anything on the board.
Black clearly took advantage of that. He has only 2 pieces left to play with but he’s sure to capture with his next move and, more over, he threatens both of White’s GIPF-pieces.
White must find a way to prevent Black from taking the GIPF-pieces on e7 and g4 with his two next moves. Is there an escape?
What would be White’s best move?
White has one piece left. Black to play…
It is White’s turn. He is 2 pieces behind and knows that Black has only 1 piece left to play. What would be his best move?
Both players have 1 piece left. It is Black to play. He must recycle pieces but all possibilities seem to endanger his last GIPF on f3. Is there a way out?
