"Winning in x Moves"

All these tasks have the identical aim: "Winning in x moves".

This means:

• Black has to move
  

• Black is looking for the fastest win
  

• White is looking to defend and prolong the game.
  

->  Therefore the task is:
Find the best moves for Black and for White!


An example:
"Black is winning in 3 moves" means: White moves 2 times and Black 3 times.  Black is winning with the 3rd move.
So  "Black is winning in 3 moves" means: there are 5 moves.

Generally:
"Black is winning in X moves mean" means x moves of Black and x-1 moves of White. There are 2*X - 1 moves.  

You will find the solutions in the topic "Winning in x Moves: Solutions".

------------------------------------------------------------

We like to give you three advices:

1. Don’t use any real Abalone-board and marbles, but try to solve the tasks like in a real game - or even blind, only in mind (advanced players).
2. Start with the first category and solve at least 2 tasks, then take the next and so on... ... until you reach a level, where you need about 2-4 minutes to solve the task - but not longer. Try to solve some problems of this categories.
3. Write down the solution with the (Aba-Pro)-Notation.
(This is also a good way to learn the Notation)

To creat "Winning in x moves"-task is also a good training. I invited you to send me per Forum-Mail your creattions !
This will support the Forum and your developemnt.
With your authorisation I will post your task(s) with a reference to your pseudo - or anonymous.
