New chess concept: Royale with Cheese

Sort:
massimocucca

I want to promote the use of the famous expression "Royale with Cheese" (which everybody knows because of the movie Pulp Fiction) to describe a royal fork that comes with a capture of a rook in the forking square. For example, in the famous match between Petrosian and Spassky, the former gave his Queen for a Royale with Cheese.

What game is that from?

They had several long matches.
