Introduction to Chess Problems Professor Chess Nut says: “Solving chess problems is like a scratch card: you scratch your head and if the right solution is revealed, you win!” According to Professor Chess Nut, usually the only guide to solving the problem is ‘White to play and win,’ an assurance that the win is there to be found. Chess problems or endings are designed not to burden the solver, but to please. Should the solver miss the designated path then the sense of achievement is lost. So it is imperative that the solver should not give up, but persevere and search for the desired solution.
