Isolating the enemy Queen



Ah yes I see the quicker mate now but in blitz it's sometimes not as easy! Two knights are wicked though! heh

But if 15. Kxe1, haven't you just sacrificed your queen for nothing?

With N on d3 capture with the K would be illegal =)

That was informative. But 14....Qe1 seems to be met by 15.KxQ. But your attack is so strong, you could even go: 15....nd3(dbl check), 16.Kd1 Bg4, resignation. I will add that on. Good game--good game.

Yes brother I understand and I like it alot, I said that I would that on!(meaning for myself). But I thought that a queen was there and a bishop. I guess I was trying to point out--don't overwork your knights. But all in all, this is a very good lesson. Thanks alot. ( But do take note that the bishop idea truly isolates the queen, eh!)
