Let me open this article by stating first and foremost that I have never held a Royal Flush in any game of Poker that I have ever played.
With that said, the following victory is the first I've seen, or encountered ... and it is certinaly the first ending of its kind that I've ever had any part of ... let alone was able to execute ! And to be very honest, I saw the move at the last moment and wasn't sure if it would even work, or if it would even be accepted by the Live-Chess database.
So ... without ... further "uh-do" (spell check that) ... here is a checkmate with the attacking Queen still threatened !!
Watch:
I would be very interested to know if this occurs often and if it has occurred in the Profession Chess Circuit ... either in past, documented chess games among the greats, or even more recently among our modern day Chess athletes.
Please leave constructive comments.
I appreciate the articles that pursue a greater understanding of the game of Chess in all its aspects and I'm hoping to create a viable article for future research.
