the number of stones of each side is way off and hes using the entire board so to do a video i would need to use a actual board to play it out. and i have not looked at it much yet to find the solution. so we will see. maybe i'll make a vid of it, not sure yet.

so, my video has received close to 60 unique views. so far ive gotten just 2 acknowledgments of its existence. i am surprised by the low show of interest. perhaps i need to make the videos more entertaining, or perhaps im wasting my time to dive into these sort of projects due to lack of audience. not sure. :/

Puzzles for Pente
All puzzles are player 1 to move and win in X number of moves. The number of moves refers only to player 1's moves, so for player 1 to win in four moves, there will be 7 stones placed, four by player 1 and three by player 2. For White and Black, captures already made are in parentheses followed by their stones on the board. Only the first move of each puzzle solution is given, if you need more explanation, email me. A few puzzles accidentally have two solutions and are marked with *.
Answers: I made a double chart so that you don't accidentally see the answer to the next puzzle.

Oh wow, I haven't even heard of most of these puzzles! It really would be great to be able to see these. I hope that we can find a way to post all of these into the "Puzzles" section of this site...

I think that Quincunx by Rollie Tesh also has one additional solution. This solution is very similar to the suggested one and other key stones are same but first move can be B16 instead of C17.
