Petrov's Defense: Italian Variation
1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nf6 3. Bc4 Be7 ... 52 moves
BxN is a pawn sac!
Why do we ascribe the material value of 9 to the queen when in actuality she is just a combination of rook and bishop? Rook is 5 points and bishop is "3", so the queen should be 8 points. The truth is that the bishop is worth 4 pawns, not 3. (5+4 =9).
Maximum knight force is 8 squares while maximum bishop force is 13 squares, why do we call them equal strength!? Fallacy :)
