  Domdaniel: Oops.
"So I grab the pawn on b2, attacking the undefended Knight on c3. He can't play Rb1, because I take the Knight. And he can't defend the Knight with Qd2, as it leaves the Rook hanging... yeah, go for it!"

The unasked question:
"Where does the Knight go?"

Jul-07-20  sea7kenp: Another question for Black to ask: "Why did White move 7 a3? Shouldn't he have defended his b Pawn?" Answer: "Remove b4 as an Exit Square for the Black Queen!"

8...Bb4+ 9.c3 and Black is out of the swamp. 9.Kf1 then you can resign.

It is better to have checked and lost than never to have checked at all.
