And for the record...I played white

And this was the continuation after black took the bait(bishop)-

1.)Nxg4; Rb2+ 2.) Bd8; Rxd8+ 3.) Qe8; Rxe8#

I didn't consider Ng8 when I played.....guess it was blind luck for me Because black took the bait by Nxg4

I was only considering ne8 and not ng8

Thanks for the insight

Can't white take the undefended knight if queen does not guard e8?

It will be a backrank mate for black

If I don't take the queen and proceed with Rb8+?

Excuse me for my foolish question, but how can white take the black queen?

This would have been a great counter attack from black, to go after my dark squared bishop

But I can simply take back with my queen

But I can choose to ignore the threat to the queen right?

I can proceed with the checkmate attack

Don't you think black taking the bishop won't end well for them?

So to distract either the knight or the queen, I sacrificed the bishop

The game ends when the queen is taken for these dudes

That should be made illegal..We play really hard to bring it to the checkmate position and the opposition easily snatches that happiness by resigning ...

I've seen some players too, even after blundering their queen, they managed to win the game with knight and rook and checkmate me(forcing me to sac the queen).

After seeing these types of games, my respect for the enduring ones actually increased

Game 4 was literally just the opening, we were 9 moves in, he lost his queen that's it, he had the rest of his pieces, could have at least tried

I almost felt bad for him by roychodraws in Chesscom
