I often find puzzles where a winning move isn't counted as correct because another move is even better. I get that the exercise is to find the best move, but at the same time it can be quite frustrati…

Puzzle 1726: 3. 43-38 is also winning. It's not quite as good as 44-39, but it makes the final shot even better.

There is an alternative solution, although it is a bit longer, but the tactical motif can be spotted easier: 1.48-42 37x48 2.17-12 7x18 3.15-10 5x14 4.44-39 48x34 5.35x4 18-22 6.4x27 36-41 7.27-31 …

Puzzle 1204: a lot of winning moves are missing from the endgame, such as 8. 2-16 and 8. 2-35 6-11 9. 35-44 11-16 10. 44-39.

Frisian puzzle 65 has another way of winning: 2...26-31 3.41x21 16x7 4.12x1 33-39 5.40x38 3-8

After 2.37-31 4.33-29 5.43-39 it is also possible to play 6.39-33 and 7.41-37 iso 6.41-37 and 8.39-33 etc.

after 27-21 and 33-39, the move sequence 30-34, 48-43 and 42-38 also lead to a winning position.
