I mean...what is this? Did you start to post something that was going to make sense but then blacked out and when you came to this is what was submitted? 

Wits-end

This is the kind of stuff that drives the already low quality of the forums lower and lower. One shouldn’t be allowed to post such nonsense.

he likely accidentally flipped the board and wanted to demonstrate what to do when your pieces are forked/attacked.

I think he's saying that beginners don't know that penguins are cute...

How odd. I am a relative idiot when it comes to chess but I'm fairly sure I could beat a king and three pawns with a king and two queens. Except in the third example where there is no king to attack so I probably couldn't win that meh.png.

I think the OP just set up the first board in the wrong direction. The other two examples support the idea - If two of your pieces are being forked, if you can move one of them with check to the opponent's king, then you can usually get both forked pieces out of trouble. But he should have stated the idea clearly.

But yeah, penguins *are* cute...
