Showed up in my feed on another site.

I’m assuming it’s expecting Qxb5, Nxc7+ with a royal fork. But what’s stopping c6 or Nc6 instead, keeping the black Queen in a position to protect c7?

    Yeah, Stockfish doesn’t consider it a brilliant move at all. Evaluation swings from +2.6 to +1.6.

    Instead of Bb5, SF recommends grabbing the center with d4 or castling.

      Interesting. So was the screenshot that showed up in my feed faked, then?
