Great opening trap I found, you go down three pawns and a rook but take an opponent queen!

Look at how restricted whites pieces are compared to your wide open position with a bishop on the long diagonal. I'd say black is clearly better here.

Eeeeeh... the queen he captured counts as a pawn, you know. Black has a huge material disadvantage in that position, with no real positional advantage since no piece is really developed, and the position is open and easy to attack. Black is actually much worse in this situation.

No black is better, white had only moved his king pawn, but black has moved 2 pawns and a bishop, AND captured an opposing queen.

White hasn't developed any of their pieces, instead they made 5 pawn moves. And they blundered every single piece they moved! Just incredible.

Iโ€™m not sure if Iโ€™m following here. It sounds like youโ€™re trying to keep score of whatโ€™s specifically been captured, rather than whatโ€™s left on the board. Why does it matter if he promoted the pawn or not?

MrBexy ยท 6 points ยท Posted at 07:21:51 on March 7, 2021 ยท (Permalink)

Well yeah, but Iโ€™m mostly concerned with why the act of taking the second queen is so important and why it would be better not to promote it, as you said. Because in my experience with this game, it wouldnโ€™t really make any difference whether you choose to promote it or not.

CertainChart ยท 27 points ยท Posted at 22:49:45 on March 8, 2021 ยท (Permalink)

MrBexy ยท 5 points ยท Posted at 01:12:56 on March 9, 2021 ยท (Permalink)

But that wasnโ€™t their queen. They promoted a pawn to a second queen, which was instantly taken. The opponent still has a queen left.

Moss? Is that you?

[deleted] ยท 12 points ยท Posted at 22:48:20 on February 28, 2021 ยท (Permalink)*

a rook is worth 5 pawns. a queen is worth 9
they took a rook and 3 pawns
5 + 3 = 8
they took 8 points of material
you took their queen so that's 9
BUT they also had to use up a pawn to get that queen, so they're also a pawn down
10 - 8 = 2
yeah, that's right, you know what this means
the chessmasters here will get it

(explanation for those who couldn't follow the maths: you're up TWO PAWNS in material if you use this opening trap. that's two thirds of a knight. pretty solid opening, eh?)

WeePacifier ยท 9 points ยท Posted at 21:37:27 on February 28, 2021 ยท (Permalink)

Yeah, white missed the tactic of underpromoting to a knight so black can't take their queen. Don't expect white to make this mistake every game, you're playing hope chess.

It costs you 3 pawns and a rook only to take down a pawn? Its very creative but i dont see how this gives you an advantage

The title claims that black takes the oponents queen. This is technically true, but it is just a queen, which makes the statement a lot less impressive. So while the title is true, this is a stupid tactic. /r/thatsthejoke/

What a load of crap. You morphed your Bishop into a Queen just before it was taken. Both Queens are intact in their original place. Now you have 3 Queens on your board. SMH FW.

This is not worth the material.

So this is why we treat captured promoted pawns as pawns.
