blore(1914) whispers: wow
blore(1914) whispers: nice
nraravind(2089) whispers: B should play Nf3+
blore(1914) whispers: nf3+ gxf3 Bxf3 bxd5+ bxd5 qxd5+ qxd5 nxe7+ and Nxd5
nraravind(2089) whispers: When the smoke clears W has a bishop for a rook and 7 to 5 pawns.
blore(1914) whispers: yes
nraravind(2089) whispers: ah! blore I didn't think of the move order.
blore(1914) whispers: knight not bishop
