Qf3?? { Qf3 doesn't do anything to block or assist the Rook. Usually Nc6 is played. } 6... Qc7 (6... Nc6 7. Qxc6+ Bd7 { With this line Black is down a minor but does get a small attack and tempo on the Queen. } 8. Qa6 e6 9. Nf3 Nf6 10. Nc3 Bb4) 7. Qxa8 Bb7 8. Qxa7 { The Bishop is now pinned to the Queen. } { [%cal Ga7c7] } 8... Na6?? { The Bishop is still pinned so Rxa6 is a threat. } 9. Rxa6 Bxa6 10. Qxc7 { 1-0 White wins. } { This line is an example why it is important to know some of the traps in the openings you play. While this doesn't always happened its much more common in the 3 and 5 minute blitz pools which this one was in. } 1-0
