Can someone explain, in simple terms (if possible), why this pawn move (bxa3) was a brilliant move?
A brilliant move sacrifices material or allows material to be captured, as long as the mov e is good or best
It doesn't matter if taking that material is bad for the other player or not
bxa3 allows white to capture the rook on d4
