Double attack- Double defense

Today's tip is to use double attacks to win pieces and sometimes to checkmate.

A "double attack" is when you threaten two things at once, such as a knight and a rook, or checkmate and a queen.

In this position black is threatening a double attack can you find the right move?

If you chose Qxb2 then you are correct.

In this case as a bonus we win a pawn and now white

cannot defend the knight and the rook.

Look at this diagram to see how white is busted.

Next tip will be very similar and include the ideas

of how similar positions are not always the same,

and introduce the idea of a double defense!
