I'm watching a GothamChess video on the Traxler, and at about 6:40 into the video, he says that the bishop on f2 cannot be captured. Why?
KxB leads to Ng4+. Queen cannot capture knight due to Bishop on c8. This allows black to play Qf6 and then mate?
Because he would receive a checkmate in 3-4 movements .
