I sat down again and played until the position was real. This is that second sitting.
Queen takes b2. Two legs gone.
rnb1k1nr/pp1pppbp/8/2p3p1/2PP4/4P3/Pq1BNPPP/RN1QKB1R w KQkq – 0 6
White’s queen’s knight still sits home. The b2 pawn is hanging. Black took it. The chair loses two legs at once: material and development.
Ask it: can White trap the queen, or did the seat already tip?
Later the board gets messy. Black’s king walks up. Rooks hit the second rank. Sit on this position and find the force.
8/5R1p/3k1p2/p2P4/3r4/6Pb/B2r1P1P/R5K1 b – – 0 29
Black to move after Rxf7. Rd1+ starts the net. Do not invent a save for White. Play the checks.
I wish you the best of luck!!
