I was wondering if anyone can post of an example game they have played in which either they or their opponent have underpromoted a pawn. Despite all the games I have played or studied, the only time I have every seen underpromotion take place is in chess puzzles. Thank you.
I don't have any handy, but in MANY Internet games, I have underpromoted (usually to a knight, but sometimes a bishop) to prevent stalemating my persistent opponent when a queen or rook wouldn't work. :)
The knight on D8 was promoted from a pawn.
