    Just wait until he sacrifices a more valuable figure.

    The pawns always get the short end of the stick.

    I’ve been thinking of doing a video, using the Beatles’ song “Piggies” with images of homeless vs images of the creeps at Davos…

    He’s sacrificing a pawn … but it looks like the other guy’s king should be in check … and is it in check by a bishop? … and it appears that he has 2 bishops – each on a white square.

    … and the guy with black pieces should also have the sacrificing-a-pawn guy (with the white pieces) in check with his queen.

    Oh wait … now I see … now it makes sense … they’re playing on a 6×8 chess board (six squares wide). The rules are different for 6×8 chess.

    The classic Pawn Pire Ploy.

    Controlling the center of the board is a big deal. Bonus for intimidation without trash talking.
