I've had 17 Brilliant moves in 7 years, which I did not know about until the other night when I checked the Insights function (must be Diamond member to do so). So far I have only found one game in which I saw the move, since you can't search them and I've played a LOT of games. I was very surprised the move was rated as Brilliant since it just did not look all that great but seemed rather obvious given the board position. The move in question involved sacrificing a Bishop for a pawn in front of the Black king, which allowed me to bring down the Queen supported by a Rook. I had a blunder immediately after the Brilliant move but still managed to eek out a win. Honestly, unless its a 5 or more deep forced mating combination I would have rated this move lower.
I had three last week. 219 in the past year.
I have played a brilliant move before
