Disappearing pieces???

Avatar of rusticmongoose

So on move 28. I (black) play Rxh3 and instead of taking the pawn, my rook disappears from the screen and is listed under the taken pieces on the right. Both me and my opponent see this. However on play back it looks normal. We drew by agreement after this lol. Anyone know what happened? Is it a common glitch?

Thats probably a glitch in live chess. Its still Beta. But the Rook is present in the diagram above. You should report that to the support staff.

It is probably just a visual glitch.

Even if it is a real bug, it is probably not the same bug that happened in 2009, as it was probably fixed in the past 13 years.

Where is my rook???

You're playing an unrated odds game against a much lower rated friend. Without your 'a' rook and pawn, the game odds are considered to be even.
