 Two piece sacrifice to open lines of attack I'm quite proud of this one. I love sacrificing to produce the win!

Re: Two piece sacrifice to open lines of attack Thanks for the compliments.
For me, sacrificing to win, is the most beautiful aspect of chess. The Immortal Game, is called just that, because of the sacrifice of two rooks, a bishop and the queen to achieve a win.

Re: Two piece sacrifice to open lines of attack Another idea to consider would be to simply play Qg5. Black is under developed and the dark squares around his king are weak. There is no good way to answer moves like Qxg6+, Qe7 or Rxe6. Really though Black is in real trouble at this point and there are many ways to cause him great headaches, nice game and win
