I checked the author's X post and he is overwhelmed by a multitude of goofy comments by anti-Israel whackos. (From a chess standpoint, I'm going to try that setup on an actual game. I always try a tactic that potentially achieves checkmate in 4 moves; it's devastating to an opponent who doesn't see it coming! With this Israeli setup, it can be done in 3 moves.) ☺️ -Ron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I beat the overconfident best player in our HS chess club with it. Boy was he pissed. LOL 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
