    The rook isn't necessarily a sacrafice...although it qualifies as an initial
    loss of material for a tactical gain (which creates material gain of course).


    Note: due to the PGN viewer's mispost, you don't get to see the Rook
    taking the Knight which still resides on d5. 🙁




    Not sure what the issue is with the PGN...the move is Nd7-f6... and its
    input that way, but the Viewer moves the Knight from d5?... who knows
    but small issue you'll want to of course omit.

    Yes, that's funny with your pgn. Because of that I initially wanted to ask what was the point of R to d5 🙂

    About my sac of R for N which you mentioned. I think that if white took the R with pawn, that would be a sac, wouldn't it? Because white;s other R is protected by the Q. Or am I missing something?

    Hi guys,

    What do you think of this 5 min game (on FICS)? I think some of the sacs by white may have been oversights 🙂

    What's your opinion on this one?

    5 min FICS game
    [White "GuychRock"]
    [Black "Dolce"]
    [Result "0-1"]
    [WhiteElo "1171"]
    [BlackElo "1219"]
    [TimeControl "300"]



    I think my main problem was I didn't see that blacks could do 21...Qg7. After 18...Ne5 I thought for a while whether I should sac or not. I didn't see that Qg7 and took 19.Nxg6.

    18. ... Qe3+ 19 Nxe3 or did I not see a pin on the Knight?

    Edit: it's of course 17 ... Qe3+ Qe2 Qxe2# I looked at the wrong move.

    Any comments on this, please? Am I right, or did I miss something more?
