Just finished a game with my mate bob, I'm a piece up, but he has plenty pawns.

Can you find the move that made bob throw in the towel?

easy one. Pawn is pawn, but piece is a piece!

Nice!!

It's called cross interference (if he takes Rxe7, the bishop is still blocked from f8, if he takes Bxe7, the rook is still blocked from h7). Usually you see that in problems, I never had it come up in an actual game yet...
