It was easy to picture Guy Andrew feeling so smug that he could hardly stand himself, as he posted this position and then with supreme self-satisfaction sat back while thinking, "OK. Let's see that wise guy in Virginia find the refutation to THIS one!" And indeed I can't. Black could avoid the immediate mate by playing BPxN instead of BxQ, but this time his position would be a big shambles.

It's weird how you were able to play the exact same theme of the pin-breaking Queen sac just a few weeks after that 9-mover. Don't your opponents know yet how you are Death on their KB2 squares?

Control

Politics is the control of wealth and power. You are being conditioned to condemn politics as petty and boring, thus granting all the more control to the powers that be. You are either a part of the problem or a part of the solution. The choice is yours.
