I wanted to ask why isn't this brilliant ? Rook sacrifice for a simplified endgame.Dont you think it should be brilliant?
It was a clear practical decision but it was not "brilliant" because you were already "completely winning" without it. The engine said you were +6.
From the Support pages:
Brilliant Moves are always the best or nearly best move in the position, but they are also special in some way.
We replaced the old Brilliant algorithm with a simpler definition: a Brilliant move is when you find a good piece sacrifice.
There are additional conditions:
You should not be in a bad position after a Brilliant move
You should not be completely winning even if you hadn't found the move.
We are also more generous in defining a piece sacrifice for newer players compared to those who are higher-rated.
