Here is a very
beautiful queen sacrifice Ponziani Power Vote Chess
POST YOUR QUEEN SACRIFICES HERE:
This position arose in a game I recently played. I analyzed the sacrifice for several minutes and I realized what I could play. I've sacrificed my queen before, but never in this manner. Somehow, through looking for a deflection of white's queen, I saw the move. When I offered my queen, white accepted immediately without thinking. Perhaps he was thinking: "Did my opponent forget that pawns capture diagonally?" The possible continuations after the acceptance of the sacrifice are truly beautiful. All of them are forced mates.
