It looks completly impossible to save white in the starting position of Richard Reti's epic masterpiece. However, this riddle can be solved with hard-headed logic und by celebrating the rule of the square. Knowing this study is not only a must for any serious
chess player but also a lot of fun for everyone who simply likes the game of the kings and even interesting for those ones who like to solve fascinating logic puzzles.
The composition was published 1921 in 'Kagan's Neueste Schachnachrichten' (with a black pawn on h6 and black to move) and then in the Deutschösterreichische Tages-Zeitung ('DÖTZ') on 11. September 1921.
In 1928, Reti came up with another pawn endgame composition which derived from the one shown in this clip. The more recent chess riddle looks even more insane but this one shown here is the original version.
BTW, according to the Austrian chess historian Michael Ehn, Réti's study was inspired by a match game Schlechter-Marco, Vienna 1893.

An endgame study, or just study, is a composed chess position—that is, one that has been made up rather than one from an actual game—presented as a sort of puzzle, in which the aim of the solver is to find a way for one side (usually White) to win or draw, as stipulated, against any moves the other side plays.
To the extent that they are composed positions and offer the solver a specific task, endgame studies are similar to chess problems in which the stipulation is to "checkmate black in two moves against any defense," for example. However, while problems often present very artificial looking positions, studies often appear that they could occur in a game.
As with problems, for a study to be regarded as a good one, it must have only one solution. Some argue that White must have only one move at each juncture to achieve one's aim, though some feel that minor alternatives (such as a choice of moving a knight b1–c3–b5 or b1–a3–b5) are permissible.
Various methods of classifying studies have been attempted; a commonly used indexing system is the GBR code.

It looks completly impossible to save white in the starting position of Richard Reti's epic masterpiece. However, this riddle can be solved with hard-headed logic und by celebrating the rule of the square. Knowing this study is not only a must for any serious
chess player but also a lot of fun for everyone who simply likes the game of the kings and even interesting for those ones who like to solve fascinating logic puzzles.
The composition was published 1921 in 'Kagan's Neueste Schachnachrichten' (with a black pawn on h6 and black to move) and then in the Deutschösterreichische Tages-Zeitung ('DÖTZ') on 11. September 1921.
In 1928, Reti came up with another pawn endgame composition which derived from the one shown in this clip. The more recent chess riddle looks even more insane but this one shown here is the original version.
BTW, according to the Austrian chess historian Michael Ehn, Réti's study was inspired by a match game Schlechter-Marco, Vienna 1893.
