The Power of the Rook III

Sort:

Here is yet another rook and knight combo.  I had to run my opponent's knight out of there to avoid a possible knight trade.  After I did that, there were a couple of moves he could have made to avoid the mate, but I don't think he saw it coming.

So, that being said, here is another checkmate thanks to the almighty rook.

I played as black.  Enjoy!

e5 isn't that great

I prefer Qxd5 over exd4

Nf6 may have been better than Bf6

I like c6 better and after his rook move you pin the knight

Nxc7 is better

another mate because of the king in the center
