Advanced Lessons - Queen vs Passed Pawn

Sort:

Why is the lesson instructing queen to check the king while threatening the pawn??? Pawn is in front of the king I guess like a diagonally. Lesson instructed Q to check the king at the same time pressure pawn. The King moved, instead of pawn capturing the Q.

Sobe, most likely you're reading the diagram upside down wink.png The pawn is moving away from the queen, not towards it
