Hello Everybody!! I am back with another cool blog !!

Well before this, I would like to tell you the topic of this blog...
KNIGHT FORK:

Remember what I said about Knights in one of my blogs? Well, if you don't, then take this :

Knights are also very dangerous in Forks and the most common fork you will see in many games is Nf7 (Knight F7 check forking the king and rook).

A Knight fork occurs when a Knight attacks two or more pieces at once. We're considering Knight forks separately from other forks because they are often difficult for beginners and novices to spot.

Take the example above. The Knight can fork the King and Queen and manage to get a Draw instead of losing. This fork is also called a ROYAL FORK. It is very interesting when you give a KNIGHT FORK to other players but it is so sad when another player forks your pieces with his Knight. Moving on, now I will give you 2 puzzles you need to solve related to KNIGHT FORK.

1. White is already winning with an extra Knight but there is another chance. Try to find it.

 2. Black has a huge advantage. Can you find a crushing Knight Fork?
