Captive - Hipo RHP 2009
This position Black to play.
I'm pretty sure you won't get it. It's pretty hard.
----spoiler alert---------
Black played 3...Ng1-f3.
White then castled Black on the Queenside even though the b8 Knight was still there.
(Black also losses his Queen which was sitting doing no harm to no one on d8)
Black in turn castled White the h1 Rook stamping on the f1 Bishop.
The b8 Knight then disappeared in a tactical trick I'd love to learn.
The fun eventually ends with 10.Na7 checkmate, except it's not checkmate.
The whole game looks like one of my chess YouTube vids.
