Wow! I had spent hours trying to figure this one out. I had not seen a hidden pair in a while and had forgotten to look for it. Many thanks, Jeff |

In your solution it appears that you meant to type r6c8 rather than r6c7 as it appears in the solution.
I could not find out what stte stands for. I looked in the terminology list but could not ... |

I can't believe I missed the locked 9's in Box 7. I eliminated the 9 from R7C9 using a 679 XYZ pivoted in R4C7.
Many thanks. Jeff |

I have always been able to solve these very hard puzzles using the rather "standard" simple techniques, but not this one. I have the same numbers as are shown in the grid, however, I do not ... |

I had overlooked that the 9 could be eliminated in R3C7 through the 129 xy wing. Thanks, |

I come up with a somewhat different grid after using various straight forward operations. For example I was able to get rid of several 4's in the 5th Box, plus some 9's in Rows 5 and 9. The only prob ... |

An xy-wing (269) opens up a new xy-wing (249) which solves it..
I think I see the 269 xy-wing with c1r9 (69), c2r8(29), and c1r1(26). This eliminates the 2 in c1r8, which does not seem to make m ... |

I can't seem to make any progress on this puzzle. An earlier note had indicated there was a XYZ wing focused on the 123 in R6C6, however, I don't see how this can be with the numbers I have. Maybe I ... |
