Queen Sacrifice to force the Opponent's king into the Center...

Recently, I played a blitz game against a strong IM and reached a middlegame position where I had the tempting option to sacrifice my queen for two minor pieces with compensation.

Take a look at my article which covers the variations of the sacrifice in depth, including several exercises where you can test your ability to find the only winning moves: https://mardovchess.com/calculation-exercises-two-piece-sacrifice-for-queen

Additionally, I am running a free chess improvement program that is open for all. Join the team here: https://lichess.org/team/mardovchess-mentorship-program and leave me a message if you are interested in joining.

Have a good day!
