sure its a great fork, but it only lasts for one turn.

Another way to look at it would be that black will be a queen down permanently.

does it? both black horseys can just take the white horsey and the forking is over.

Can't you just use E7 to counter it?

[-] [email protected] 33 points 8 months ago

Of course. The bishop at h4 will be stunned at seeing this pro gamer move and won’t be able to capture the king.

No, it is pinned

Ah, I see now

I'm not much of a chess player, but I guess I should've seen that coming

But it can't be taken bc of pins so I don't think it actually gets a brilliant does it?

After Ke8, Qg2... Bb7 gets out of the mess fine. Therefore white has no advantage /s

[-] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Qg2? Brilliant.
