Légall's Mate

Last updated on Tue, 03/25/2008 at 9:07am.

Légall's Mate is named after the French player M. de Kermar, Sire de Légall (1702-1792).  While there are several variations, each involves the sacrifice of the queen.

 If you would like to see more on this trap, David Surratt wrote a comprehensive article on Légall's Mate.
