Symmetrical Beauty (HIVE Blitz960 Arena)

in The Chess Community • 3 years ago

♔♞♙The Shortest Game of the HIVE Blitz960 Arena

Game started with Chess960 start position: 670. Both the players had their eyes on weak b2 and b7 squares:

The game has beautiful symmetrical threat, distracting both players' attention away. Then the awaited magical moment happened:

Realdeadleaf(1692) 1-0 HerbyW(1557)
1. g3 g6 2. Bg2 Bg7 3. Bxb7# { White wins by checkmate. } 1-0
Final position:

If chess rules allowed black to play Bxb2, both kings would be checkmated!
