Hint

Discovered Check - Chess Terms - Chess.com

I watched this speed chess game live and the move blew my mind.


Spoiler

35.Qxg6+!!

Two exclams is a brilliant move. Discovered checks can be nasty and that’s true here. The discovered checks of the bishop are devastating.

White’s move blew my mind but after I saw that - I could easily see this very simple continuation: check, kill the bishop, check, kill the queen and it’s effectively game over.

    Yes, but

    ___ then white takes the pawn at g7 and keeps the black king in perpetual checks while taking a pawn, the bishop and the queen. Black is left with no pieces and down a pawn.
